If you’ve been applying for cybersecurity jobs and hearing nothing back… this might be why.

In this episode of the Cybersecurity Mentors Podcast, two active cybersecurity hiring leaders break down what’s actually preventing candidates from getting interviews — based on real hiring experience and large-scale resume data analysis.

We cover:

• How to write resume bullets that show impact (not just responsibilities)
• Why measurable results massively increase callback chances
• The biggest LinkedIn mistakes we see from entry-level candidates
• How to tailor your resume for SOC, Cloud, or GRC roles
• Why “spray and pray” job applying no longer works
• How portfolios, GitHub, and even short videos can help you stand out

Competition in cybersecurity is rising — and small details now make the difference between getting ignored and getting interviews.

If you want honest hiring manager feedback, this episode is for you.
