POSITION: Security Engineer! I have about 4 years of full-time experience in the field. I’m studying relevant (to the job description I applied for) domains/topics from https://github.com/gracenolan/Notes . Somebody on Reddit said that for each of the topics under the domain you are studying, you should know enough info on it to speak for at least 5 minutes. This is obviously a lot and I don’t have that much time. I have an hour-long FAANG phone interview coming up in several days (I’ve had a little over 2 weeks to prepare in total, and I’ve been looking over things outside of this as well), so it’s been stressful. I’m not sure if my note taking is enough or if I should dive in deeper. For example, for the ‘interception attacks’ topic under Network attacks (under the Exploits domain), I just wrote down what a man-in-the-middle attack is and very brief descriptions of 2-3 other attacks that would fall under it. Would this be enough??
