This has been the most beneficial video that I have watched in launching my Cybersecurity career, especially in getting into a GRC position. If you are looking for some top notch information about blowing the competition out of the water in an interview in being prepared, this is the video to watch. As well as others for knocking your first 30/60/90 days in position out of the ball park and really showing your employer what you've got. This community has been a game changer in my career, and I cannot give enough thanks. I also recommend his GRC Analyst Master Class.
@@bsai3458 Thank you!!! I used GRC Analyst, associate grc analyst, associate information security consultant, associate grc consultant, etc. I use associate at the beginning of the title because that means entry level. I hope this helps!
Watched from start to end, made notes, and already implementing the recommendations!! Seriously looking forward to being a part of this community and entering the niche of GRC in Cybersecurity!! Thank you, Gerald and Erika!! Such good energy!
Was referred to this channel by a friend I’m currently in finance and so far 14 mins in and I’m loving the interaction and the feedback thank you so much
You guys really rock! I’m about to go into GRC I am switching industries from the nuclear energy sector over into IT and I am so excited! I’ve already mastered GRC in one industry after 20 years in it. All of the things that you discussed will be extremely helpful, even though I will aspire for a medium to expert level in the industry having the experience that I do. Thank you so much! I have subscribed to you, and I will be waiting for your videos every day!
@@joshuarichards9365 I got great feedback that I interviewed really well but due to my lack of experience not having done the role prior they had to pick someone who was experienced in GRC analyst (it wasn't an entry level position I applied for either, and I am still part way through my cybersec degree so I was surprised to get it) However, since I already work with the company and have been promoted once already, I've now personally met the managers and working with them on little side projects to show my willingness to learn, and they have invited me for a 4 month secondment opportunity in the cybersec operations team! So networking and putting yourself out there does go a long way, even if you face rejection they can see your motivation for the role!
This was awesome and great presentation from you and Ericka. I would like to pivot to GRC and I have been taking some certifications on LinkedIn to familiarize myself with GRC. I am looking forward to taking your mastery class on GRC and by the way I enjoy your great content on GRC. By the way I work as a case manager in behavioral health field, do you think someone in my current field would be able transition into GRC. Thank you for your response
Did you do it? ... its very entry level and doesnt go into much detail. more based on using the qualys platform to implement.. not much on the framework... I did do it and got the cert.. still helpful however
@judahtunes2245 Yes, I agree with you. Still a good certificate of completion to have. I took some of their points and just did my own deeper dive on several of the topics. I think it is a good place to start. Again, the way the course is written makes it hard to read. The sentence structures and grammer used are a bit off.
If I work as Information Security Analyst under the NIST standard, GLBA, SOC 2, can I put them on my resume if I understand the concepts even though I don't work as a GRC analyst and never been part of planning anything on the business side?
Completely off-topic, but I am curious what was that knocking tapping sound that parodically happened all throughout the video? EDIT: NM I finally got to the part where you said you had roofers.
Hey Gerald, thank you very much. I am trying to break through into GRC, I see that you have done an amazing job in compiling the GRC master course, is that course good enough to gain knowledge and get a certification from ISC2 ? Looking forward to your valuable response - Thanks once again.
The isc2 one is aligned w the phases in NIST 800-37, which is good. My course does cover that but also so much more. My course isn’t designed to be a study aid for any certification, it’s designed to give you the skills and knowledge expected of an entry level grc analyst.
Hey Gerald And everyone! I have a interview for a compliance analyst role and the recruiter advised that it will be technical and to provide examples. Are there any tips you have?
potentially auditing technical systems and the approach to that; not exactly one to one but scanning assets to determine compliance with configuraiton standards; actually using a benchmark/STIG and configuring a system to be hardened. theres 3.
Erm...so you talked around the question "how do you stay current in cyber", but you didn`t actually asnwer it...would be helpful to actually know the answer
@gettons provides valuable feedback for the content creator. The stream was challenging to follow with the repeated banging. Some viewers could not find value in the content because the mic picked up distracting background noise, but that's not the viewer's fault. Please be tolerant of your peer's feedback. Gerald can always redo the content and also reconsider his noise-cancellation technology. Some solutions could have potentially saved this stream. People can be empathetic to both the creator and the customer/consumer. The first mistake an entrepreneur makes, is not listening to their customers.

Could u share the interview questions asked for you in the interview
hey dude how has your first 4 months be?
How is it going? I just became aware of this career path.
I love Erika. She’s brief and keeps me interested. I also think interviewers or hiring managers sometimes want that and not stories.
Erika is awesome!
you think shes purrrrrty

“What recent cyber incident could have been prevented and how would you have prevented it?”
What a great question!

Hi I see you wrote this 5months this ago, may I ask how your journey is going? Did you get to find your first role with these interview tips?
If I work as Information Security Analyst under the NIST standard, GLBA, SOC 2, can I put them on my resume if I understand the concepts even though I don't work as a GRC analyst and never been part of planning anything on the business side?

Great live session!!! I think you have a background noise on the recording. Thought I bring to your notice.
New to the channel! You have some great info and insights that will help me transition into cybersecurity grc.

Great Video. Thanks for putting this up.
Might be nice to throw in something about behavior based interviewing.
This was THE BEST! #GRClife
