I was scanning through some local job vacancies; And no, I am not looking for employment, just trying to help someone else

and my eye was drawn to an advert headed
PENETRATION TESTER
A market leader is looking to recruit penetration testers across all levels.......... perhaps that means size matters after all?
Sorry if that is near the nuckle but, well, the mind boggles

Ohhhhhhh Goodness -

Does make the imagination work. Now am just thinking - would I have liked to have gone to University or College for however many years to become a Penetration Tester AND there are different levels!
An in-depth penetration tester? A Penetration Tester for mid-range? Wonder if this job is equally open to women? Interesting to know the qualifications for being a Penetration Tester

I could answer that, but I'd better not.

Just to clarify. Apparently 'Penetration Expert' or 'Expert Penetration Tester' is a job description used in various security roles for people responsible for safeguarding systems, electronic or physical, against penetration by hackers, crooks etc.
