I wish to mention learnings from the coupious time i spend on learning online privacy ,security and anonymity for my b school (MBA) admissions interview. Can I market is as a cybersecurity internship. But Cyber security has a different meaning altogether. I’m pretty much at the advance stage of the privacy journey( read all prominent books, understand techlore and others in the privacy community. Help me structure a pitch around it.

I would break it up into different catagories.

Your interest in digital privacy is something you can use to talk about your interests and what drives you.

The skills you learned from it is something you could use to supplement how you have progressed other relevant skills for your degree or job your applying to. Be specific about what you did and what it taught you and how its relevant.
