Cybersecurity Professional Laid Off Seeks Connections

The author of the post, residing in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), was laid off from their position as a SOC Analyst following the acquisition of their organization by a Scottish company. Despite having three years of experience in SOC and an MS SC-200 certification, as well as efforts to tailor their CV, they have been unable to secure interviews for similar roles, even with recommendations. They suspect that their CV is not reaching the right people and are looking to connect with decision-makers in organizations with a SOC department or an MSSP in the GTA or Waterloo.
