Pentest Interview Playbook

Pentest Interview Playbook

Land the job. Hack the interview.

Written by someone who's sat on both sides of the table this book is your ultimate guide to crushing offensive security interviews. I’ve been hired as a pentester, built a multimillion dollar pentest company from the ground up, and interviewed at some of the biggest names in tech and defense, including Bishop Fox, NCC Group, FireEye, SpaceX, Google, Microsoft, and Raytheon. I’ve also hired and trained dozens of pentesters myself so I know exactly what separates a strong candidate from the rest.

Pentest Interview Playbook walks you through every phase of the hiring process:

• Crafting a resume that gets noticed
• Acing behavioral interviews with real-world strategies
• Navigating deep-dive technical questions
• Solving hands on hacking challenges
• Surviving multi round in-person gauntlets
• And finally, negotiating and landing the offer
• 
  

Whether you're applying for your first role or looking to level up into senior positions, this is the playbook I wish I had when I started.

No fluff. No outdated advice. Just real, actionable tactics from someone who’s been there.
