"... I can teach technical but can't teach how to communicate with others..." That is patently one of the most absurd things I've heard. If you can't "teach" how to communicate with others then you're lacking communication skills. Unless we're talking about lazy or unmotivated individuals.

Some of the aspects of this interview though are misleading. The security starts like Google security that one issue is recognition you can't get recognized you will never get interview that's why to come to you is more valuable. A second thing some jobs require by their contracts for you to have a certification. This is usually for the security certificate. As it required for this specific job, no. It's required for other jobs though. I will agree though knowledge is the biggest power

Can’t find an entry level position for more than 6 months. Studying since February, competed in a national lvl CTF and did an internship for FREE, and I can’t even land an interview. Actually I did ONCE for an entry level position which I got a rejection email saying “You are not qualified enough”, lol. Industry searching for unicorns and seems like bullshit to me. Seems like cyber security is the new trend within the IT industry to have something to talk about in conferences and online. Disgusted by the job market.

Ah again, a course advertisement. :'') Edit; Cherry on top; a referral link (meaning that the whole interview is paid sponsored with royalties of every person signing up [itdad.info/GRC-Mastery]). This aches my heart, whom to trust whom not to. I am glad there are many people out there, somewhere hidden (like in reddit) who just open share all knowledge and act like pillars for continuous education for IT and infosec. The rest are, sorry to say, just sellouts.
