This is one of those things I'm saying for the sake of educating people, not the sake of subtweeting or being trite:

The recruiter told me the job was "vulnerability engineer". No description attached. My immediate response was, "I'm sorry, but I'm an incident responder / DFIR. This isn't an applicable posting for me."
Clearly, vulnerability management & research are very different fields.

We are simple folks, niche cybersecurity analysts. Getting clever or cute with your context-free position titles (or simply being uninformed about what you're asking for) is probably costing you good candidates.
I'm sorry this thread read as pretentious. I am very tired, and unsure how to make it less pretentious. I'm honestly just trying to help you hire people. Off to another G&T.
