I have ~8.5 years of experience as a security consultant and I would prefer to do more defensive/blue team work, but I'm fine doing offensive work or more consulting again. I'd also prefer to manage people because I enjoy it and I think I'm pretty good at it, but I don't mind being a pure IC.

While I am interested in being hired, I'm also very interested if anyone has constructive feedback for me about why they wouldn't hire me (no need to be gentle). I've only applied to a handful of jobs so far, and none have given me interviews or feedback, so I'm not sure why I don't appear appealing for roles I think I'm more than qualified for like Senior Security Engineer (Manager).
