I don't wanna put too much personal details here, but I've managed to find a job, my second security job. Hopefully I'll be doing more CERT type work and governance too.
I'm really happy to be moving on, should be a great environment for me on a professional and personal level.

Honestly for this job, I think none. Or a better answer - I don't know. It all came down to my answers in the interview.

I'll share as much as I can, if peeps want more information you can send me a message
The interview was very high level, more like tell us a scenario where you had to solve a technical problem. Tell us a scenario where you had to present to upper management (I have strong communication skills), tell us a situation where you handled stress.
That kind of questions.
Now I had other interviews with other places that asked questions about Certificates, file permissions, Windows commands (idiots), Active Directory, Firewalls, ...etc. Depends on the place... a lot of people are stuck in one environment with certain technologies and they assume that the whole world use the same technology/commands -
