I have a question in regards to vulnerability management analyst role. I've been a soc analyst for some time (5+ years) and have been looking to get into pen testing role with no luck. A opportunity has arisen for me to switch to a VM analyst role. Can the VM analyst role lead to penetration testing? And is this a good step to get to Pen testing? wizlynxgroup

Edit: Thank you all for you comments so far. Very appreciative and looks like it's not the right step for me in my career.
