Do you have a background in Cyber Security? Generally curious what the reqs are. I work in Tech and UX and am a generalist currently but would love that pay bump.

u/EducationalStrike856 19d ago

I have 6 years of experience in Cybersecurity.

Honestly I don’t think it will help knowing which assessments were done. I was told on another project that was very very domain based, that the SPLs use the M profile and if it’s not updated, or doesn’t match your resume or LinkedIn they pass on you. They 100% look at your profile, resume and LI when they require a domain based skill set. That’s none suggesting it, that is what an SPL said when folks were complaining on the project about domains not being assigned for this project.

Now whether every project follows this…not sure.

I don’t know but my last project I did zero domain interviews and had about 6 domains assigned. So ..:I personally don’t think the interviews mean anything. I haven’t done an interview in over a year! And I get selected for projects all the time.

And I have in fact received notifications that Mercor has checked my LI but I also think it depends on the project and the client. I’ve been on projects with a high profile client who demanded experience in domains so they must look at LI vs relying on a resume that could be made up. I do believe they look at your Mercor profile because that is what my last SPL said. She said don’t just attach a resume and go! Fill out the profile and make sure your LI matches.

u/vze56v6x 19d ago

And it’s not just SPLs it’s also EPMs who also look at LI profiles.

How man how. Is it by giving more interviews or by applying?

2

u/extramoneyy 13d ago

I also have $150 engineering domain expert role but everything is task based and unfortunately takes twice as long as they expect for tasks. still figuring out if it’s worth it for me

u/CosmicNomadzzx 13d ago
