  >This is very interesting. I have a PhD in Machine Learning but cannot get work. It seems like like everyone has one! I'm thinking of switching to security and kind of assumed it would be the same, especially seeing the ostensibly high entry requirements. Sounds promising, thank you for the insight Like this advice isn't security related. It's HR related. They aren't experts like you in X. They were told to hire X and they wrote a job listing hoping to attract the best cost efficiency candidate there is. They want as many options as possible. Always apply to all. In fact, high entry requirements can work to your benefit. Everyone else sees ridiculous requirements and doesn't apply. Leave you the only candidate and you're hired. A PHD in machine learning is all the certification you ever need. You should be employable in that field. Apply to all the machine learning jobs. Also question, what did you do your thesis/dissertation in? Could you just entrepreneur that right now?
