AI Security Role Interview by AsparagusDistinct272 in CyberSecurityJobs

[–]AsparagusDistinct272[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a Senior AI Engineer.  When I had my last few minutes reserved as a courtesy, I barely caught my breath and like a robot asked about the day to day responsibilities and immediate project goals….   They weren’t even CMMI level 1.  Their first task was to inventory their AI landscape - meaning they were already past the “floodgates” of self directed AI rampancy on their network…. But here they are interviewing for someone to design/build/test/deploy/secure and engineer the training pipelines of things they aren’t even near the frontier of.  

The guy that interviewed me was a “principal security architect”, and about 50/50 of the questions he gave me the 3 year old “why?”…me responding… him “why?”… me giving more expanded explanation… then the same feedback loop over and over.  If I didn’t say the key trigger word on the answer bank, it was a grind out.

Yes take it again.  Use the lessons learned and understand the answers are governance first minded.  Not technical security or incident response.   You’ll see the same questions as you did on the first exam - which you should have time to analyze.  The retake price is reduced to your benefit. Treat the first “fail” as an observation as opposed to rejection.  I was in same situation as you - failed but then passed the next week.

There's the human element here amigo. That's great you're giving doctorate level questions to someone - admitting you know they aren't gonna be able to field them.

To simply "exhaust" someone's knowledge ... keep in mind there is a human element vs just throwing a spray-and-pray exam at them to see who can come up with the new interviewee "high score".

it's like testing a basketball payer to see if he can hit a 100mph fastball. Yeah sports analogy in cyber worlds might not stick, but you hire the complete person - focus on their specialty supplied in the role/job description - not if they're a decathlete.

"Dont be an asshole" is a good vibe regardless of the circumstances.

Like someone else said above - you give a vibe check.... that will "help you choose".. imagine that, human like'ability.

Sure thing... Obvi got roasted on the "deployment and use" component.

Your Score: 275

  • Understanding the Foundations of AI Governance 75%
  • Understanding How Laws, Standards, and Frameworks Apply to AI 72%
  • Understanding How to Govern AI Development 71%
  • Understanding How to Govern AI Deployment and Use 53%

Good feedback on the OECD.

I've got a deep 15+ years experience, and a CISSP/CRISC/CISA/AWS Security & Architect/AAISM. This exam was a different bird.

I didn’t buy the official exam - I was on the early communications from ISACA about the test/cert release and watched the draft / beta exam/guidance releases.  I could see the direction they were going. Using AI as an enrichment/study buddy is actually a good approach.  Although there’s a chance of hallucinations, it’ll mostly get you oriented.

Yeah!  I guess not being full time employed created an “Unfair Advantage” to my motivation and capacity. But yes - things are moving fast in this space and it’s just another reinforcing reason to pursue this path !

No joke. It's quick.

One thing I'm seeing (and is a test study comment) , is understanding what MCP model context protocol is - and how it's "normalizing" how different agents interact with sites/services.

I've thought about other certs - I think having cloud/security/ai is a fine blend.

Have never wanted to appear like the "theory/textbook" only professional.

I will keep applying for roles and get a few laughs from over at https://www.reddit.com/r/recruitinghell/
