**About Nettitude**

**Location**

Applicants for the Accelerator Program must be residents of and have the right to work in the UK.

LI-Nettitude

**The Role**

In this role, you will join a 6-month training program before transitioning into the workforce as a fully-fledged Cyber Security Consultant, working within our information assurance and penetration testing team.

**A Unique Experience**

**An Innovative Approach**

At LRQA Nettitude, you will be immersed in an environment where you will be taught through a robust curriculum, consisting of carefully planned modules covering foundation, core, and advanced topics. This will give you the necessary skills to start your career as a security consultant on the right foot. Unlike many junior consultants who learn how to hack without understanding its real-world implications, at LRQA Nettitude, you will learn how to hack with a real-world perspective.

**What You’ll Be Doing**
- You will learn and progress through our comprehensive cyber assurance training program, leading to sitting the widely respected OSCP exam.
- You will participate in group-based penetration testing, working alongside some of the most highly experienced and qualified testers in the country.
- You will gain real-world experience, putting theory into practice in a controlled and supported setting.
- Spend time within our Research & Innovation Department, working on projects directly related to LRQA Nettitude’s core mission and your personal interests.
- Spend time working directly with clients through our sales and account managers.

**Key Skills**

Our Accelerator Program is designed for:

- Graduates, career changers, and anyone else looking to enter the offensive side of the cybersecurity industry. No professional penetration testing experience required
- We select individuals based on a number of data points that favor strong aptitude and a credible interest in the industry.

Individuals who can demonstrate a credible interest in the industry often have one or more of the following:

- Completed a degree, course, or certification in something cybersecurity-related.
- Written a blog related to cybersecurity.
- Demonstrated motivation and self-development, such as through a home lab setup with vulnerable machines, participation in CTFs, or similar activities.
- Membership in a security-focused group, e.g., at university, or in the wider industry (e.g., OWASP chapter participation, etc.).
- Attended or contributed to community conferences in some way.
- Contributed to software projects, potentially including their own small projects.

**What We Offer**
- A competitive salary for graduate schemes.
- The opportunity to learn from experienced and skilled penetration testers.
- Opportunities to become certified in cloud and Offensive Security.
- Regular clinic days where the whole team attends presentations by other team members or guest speakers. These can also include CTFs and digital detox days.
- Continued and supported professional development as a Security Consultant.

**How to Apply**

To apply, you need to:

- Submit your CV and cover letter.
- Complete our Capture the Flag exercise.
- Send us a written file outlining how you managed to capture the flag.

The Capture the Flag exercise will require out-of-the-box thinking and problem-solving skills to capture the flag. You will encounter a mixture of disciplines and may need to do some research. We will not only be looking for the flags you capture but also the challenges you had to overcome in your written analysis. More details on the rules and conditions for the Capture the Flag exercise can be found here. Good luck, and enjoy

**Please sign up for an account on our LRQA Nettitude Accelerator Program Capture the Flag site **here**.**

For all flags corresponding to VM-based challenges, you need to submit a written file as well. This will be a text file containing a brief description of how you managed to capture the flag. Non-VM-based challenges do not require a written analysis.

**Rules of Engagement**

All rules are specified on our CTF system; you must read and abide by the rules of engagement.
