    She makes it sound easier than it is. First of all you need a Computer Science degree from a top school just to break into Deloitte Cyber Security. Then she obviously prepared a lot to understand network, infrastructure, and cloud prior to applying her knowledge on personal projects even before attempting interviews for AWS cloud positions. For people who do not have the luxury of attending a top school and being employed by Deloitte, you're looking at 3-5 years of IT Help and support roles just to get that first position in a cyber or cloud domain, along with having a much harder time applying projects, since some of her knowledge came from within Deloitte itself. Most new people will need security+, net+, and maybe even A+ if you are a complete beginner. She is so fortunate, but hard work early in life (high school) does pay off.

    Hi! Recently I received a job offer for a grad Proserve consultant job. Was wondering if you had any insights into how repetitive the job is? I'm concerned that the day to day doesn't change too much (e.g. Gain great knowledge of aws products but repetitive when it comes to client implementation) which really limits the skills that can be developed on the job!

    • @pmc9194
      @pmc9194 Год назад +1

      Without having any personal insights regarding the specific job itself, it might be that the wisest move for you depends on how easy you think it is to get a job. If you think it is easy, or if indeed you already have a job, then indeed the details of what this new job position entails would be highly significant.
      But if you're still new to the industry and particularly if you're still in need of experience, you may also want to consider taking the job itself and seeing how it goes. Either way, you'd be gaining actual real-world experience so that if the position isn't to your taste, you'll nevertheless have added experience to your resume - basically propelling you above many graduates.
      You may also want to consider what skills you are trying to develop, and ask the hiring manager about the position about your expected day-to-day to see if it aligns with your goals - interviewing is a two-way street after all. Consultancy can be quite "flexible" from a job requirement perspective and, even after considering that, the company that reached out to you may have its own "unique" interpretation of what the job entails.
      Good luck either way - other people may be able to provide more relevant insights. Fortunately, I don't think there's any truly "wrong" choices, and so I'm sure you'll do great!
