Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2018)

What does NCC do, exactly? Penetration testing, security analysis, DFIR, and cutting-edge research into current technologies and attacks (breaking things). You spend most of your day thinking about security systems and how they can break. You get to be creative and have a lot of freedom to be clever while learning new technologies at a very fast pace. Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use.You will have enormous impact in making the software and products people use safer! All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

Examples of some of our current openings include:

* Our Waterloo (ON) office is hiring Principal Hardware Security Consultants (https://www.nccgroup.trust/us/about-us/careers/current-vacan...) as well as pentesters, both senior and junior.

* We are looking for experienced DFIR hires in Austin, Chicago, NYC, and SF. (https://www.nccgroup.trust/us/about-us/careers/current-vacan...)

CB: Since you're in the middle of your job search, and you have good work experience and we have limited time, we'll skip technical interview if you pass our test with 4.5 score or above and I will connect you right with Director of Engineering.

ME: OK

CB: Here is 40-minute TripleByte test.

ME: Done

CB (the next day): You scored a 5/5 and in the 96th percentile! I would love to move forward and have you speak with XXX, Director of Engineering

ME: OK

(non-technical call with director of engineering)

CB (next day): we have decided to proceed with other candidates (automated response)

ME: (reached out to HR, no response)

===

It was really weird, I believe Director of Engineering discriminated me by age or nationality (no proof though).
