High bench in Cyber and Risk & Reg. If you’re an experienced hire I wouldn’t recommend unless you (a) already have a solid network or (b) have some really niche, deep subject matter expertise. I worked in Cyber, Risk, & Reg and the management will literally tell you it’s “sink or swim,” and will constantly ask you to justify your value compared to a homegrown intern or campus hire. Experienced hire success rate is very low - will churn and burn you.

What shall be the next steps, shall I wait for some days or start looking for other jobs as getting a project looks difficult as there are minimalist responses.
