    In Episode #22, we dive into the chaotic and dysfunctional state of the current cybersecurity job market. Inspired by Evan Francen's no-holds-barred blog post on the topic, we explore the absurdity of job postings, unrealistic hiring expectations, and the relentless grind faced by both job seekers and employers. From gatekeeping madness to the never-ending "5 years of experience in a 2-year-old technology" demands, it’s all on the table.

    Evan Francen, an InfoSec industry titan with 30+ years of experience, hosts the conversation, sharing his (always) candid insights, while his co-host Matt Goodacre shares his insightful day-to-day information security leadership perspective. The mission to fix the broken industry has never been more relevant.

    🔥 What to Expect:
    • The unfiltered truth about cybersecurity job woes.
    • Practical advice for breaking into the industry (or surviving it).
    • Strategies to fix the mess we’ve made.
    • A healthy dose of humor, because sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying.
    Whether you’re an industry veteran, a newcomer, or just here for the insanity, this episode will have you nodding in agreement and shaking your head in disbelief.

    📌 Don’t miss this conversation—it’s time to confront the madness head-on! 💥
