I highly advise you to find an INFOSEC forum or two and post your question there. Do not take advice from folks who have no experience in the industry. Consider the occupation of folks before giving their opinions equal weight. In this case, TrailRunr's advice is probably best.

FWIW, I'd be very curious what type of company would hire someone as a mid-level security engineer with no previous infosec experience. For a position like this, you do need technical chops, not just general managerial experience.
