May have potentially landed my dream job

Tell us more my friend

Spill the beans

Always happy to see people from the crib succeeding

Thinking about taking the CySA+, but dunno how useful it'd actually end up being for me.

I got my first apprenticeship contract for my final year of study. For a BA position, I don't know what it's worth, it sounds like a bullshit job

But anyway i'm happy ​

I can’t spill too much of the tea… but let’s just say it involves financial cybercrimes @wes

Looks like that accounting/CS background pulled through in the end

Congratulations fam

Currently what I’m studying for. After that then pentest and i can take the weight of certs off my shoulders for a min

looks like i gotta actually go get certified now, had a good run.

Taking my A+ 1101 this month

Still learning Python I’d say I’m high beginner level, low intermediate

Plan to end up with CEH. Cybersecurity is the goal

Time for a career change 💪🏿

Hard getting an IT job now.

Got laid off last august and was on unemployment, now I'm back to looking for a new role.

The job security in this field is abysmal.

Might switch into Teaching.

What was your role more specifically

Worked 2 jobs last year. Help Desk and Data Consultant

What certs or learning should I do to be an attractive Business Systems A***yst?

You already in security on planning on getting into it? Been in it for over a year now, and not 100% sure what I wanna do for my next job.

Dont know which cert to go for next,

I have ccna and security+ kinda lost on what I want to do next. All i know is that I don't want to be a network admin/engineer

In the military working cybersecurity for the past 2-3 years. Getting out next year but will continue working as a civilian.

Ah gotcha. From what I've heard, CySA+ particularly good for military/government positions. When you get around to taking it, let me know how it is. If I do end up taking it, probably going to take the version that expires in December since I imagine that has less objectives compared to the new one. Did the same with Sec+ a day before it expired

Apparently military dont give a damn as long you got sec+ and got some experience. Something about being 8570 compliant is all they care about. But i’ll come back and let you know how it is. It’s always better to do the test that expires since ofc it has more material than the old one. But best of luck to you g

anybody here in a cloud engineer or adjacent role? i'm about to start studying to get that AWS SAA cert

any of you guys do servicenow?
