Part of the problem are the for-profit schools and bootcamps cranking out 'cyber security' graduates. They know the least out of all the people I interview. How can you pretend to know anything about cybersecurity when you don't actual know anything about programming or networking?

The classes cover buzzwords like vishing/phishing/smishing, you run Kali Linux and 'hack' something, and then you get your certificate.
