Highlights for the week
On a current event tip, an Islamist terrorist group attacked an Israeli party killing thousands and wounding several more. Lot's of saber-rattling going on and there's no sign of a cease fire. It has the perfect concoction of a world war. And we're giving away $100M ... money the US could use.
On a personal tip, I'm ending the week on a high. A recruiter reached out and I'm in the throes of an interview process with NBC - Peacock. I've also had the fun privilege of joining a CTF team for Huntress.
What We Loved
- Member of a cool CTF Team
- Interviewing for a cool job
- Sat through an awesome webinar for Secure Ideas .. met some great people
What We Learned
- Security+ - I'm in the final lap of the Cert. Going through GRC .. learning a ton!
- Participated in a Snyk CTF challenge. It was the same as the last time I did it, but met cool people.
- Pen Testing - Managed to pull in some Burp Suite labs for the week.
- Automation - Started BDD ... came to find out the job doesn't use Cucumber. The decision now is whether to keep going or pause. My time is finite; WebdriverIO is still paused.
- Cult.ure - Chapter 26 is in full swing. It's a slog considering the characters I've introduced and the direction the story is going.
What We Longed For
- Appium isn't working anymore. Not concerned but also not happy about that.
- Hoping the job works out .. it's 13 months, no pay. The finances have me covered for another month. Not going through the holidays broke!
What We Loathed
- The whole job search process is the literal worst.
