What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

Be honest. Show your interest and how you've been doing things outside of work/school etc. to study information security or even something related like a programming job. Anything tech related that you have done really helps out. Also if you have any presenting skills, put them in there, as it will be a massive plus if they see that you have people skills as well as technical skills.

Do you have any interview tips?

Make sure you know your stuff. Review your networking skills, know what NMAP is, how TCP/IP works, what is the 3 way handshake. These are all things you should have already covered. If not, you'll probably learn them on the grad scheme, but it will make you less competitive overall. Know how to program. If you can program even a little bit in some language it will be a massive help to you within this type of company. Oh, and don't lie. It will be obvious to them if you don't know your stuff when they start asking you to prove your skills. Just admit to them you don't know. You are not expected to know everything starting out.
