    Hey Sandra, I got a full-time job as a Jr. Cybersecurity analyst! I remember being very anxious about my career change. And started watching your videos since 2021. It's been a wild ride going back to school as an international student but your channel helped me to get all the necessary info for resume, skills, and even interview prep. I really appreciate you being supportive and transparent about the industry❤️

    Hey Sandra, I have a question and hope you can help.
    So, I passed the A+ a couple months ago back on September 17th. Followed by starting to study for Network plus as my goal is to get into Cyber Security. As I was about a month and half into studying Net+ I was told that I should be focusing on Sec+ So I switched over and started studying Sec+ for about 2 months. Followed by someone else telling me to go back to NET+ as it's vital. I don't know what to do because I need one thing to focus on. Any hep would be appreciated.

      Hey there. 41 years old. Criminal Justice BA, 20 plus years of customer service jobs. I decided I wanted to change my career. The best way is to start at maybe Comptia IT+ to cover the very and I do mean basic of basics and then go from there. Keep your eyes and your mind open. Be flexible when I first got into thinking about changing careers I thought all of cyber security was coding. Cyber security is vast and there is literally a role for every skill set.

      I never got a good grasp of studying for my classes until i got a good friend group, i really think study groups are key, especially when it’s a hard or boring class (which tbh is a good chunk of classes in college lol). Connect with a few classmates (or just one other person) and maybe plan to get together weekly or before exams, it really helps you push through too rather than procrastinating when you do it with someone else! This could work just as well with friends outside of your major/classes too if you just have study hangouts. Also try timeboxing and other apps that help with keeping you focused for short periods followed by quick breaks. Good luck, you got this Cynthia!! 😁

    What degree do you have? Bachelors? Master? PhD? Also, I hear they do lvl 2 background checks. I guess you can say I have a criminal history. I went to court, but they trial was taking incredibly long and it ended up taking a couple of years. I eventually went with community services to get my record scrubbed. But I was never convicted! Also, this was when I was 11 or 12 years old.

      You could try looking for some internships. You’ll definitely want to get some certifications to back up your experience. Right out of high school might not be easy finding cyber jobs because most employers will want a few years of experience or a college degree to supplement the years of experience. So the internship helps get your time in and could even lead you to getting a better job after the internship at the same company.

      Correct you don’t need certifications for entry level jobs. However it looks better when your resume has it compared to someone else that’s brand new too and doesn’t have it. Also to make more money you most definitely are required to have a degree or more advanced certifications.
