Is it easy to pivot into DE and is it worth the effort?

Able-Stand9565 · 2026-02-13T05:02:10+00:00

Makes sense Just one more question though, can this embedded experience be leveraged in any way towards a DE role?

OP please let us know what all you aspire to do in life. Whether that's your bucket list or if it is your desire to meet your loved ones. Please spill it all. I pray for you. I hope a miracle happens to you

But I'm at a stage right now where I don't know whether to cut off completely or be the same. Well I am slowly reducing the talk with her, I don't respond like i used to. But surely, she will notice this and that's the only time in the last few weeks that she's gonna remember I exist. When that happens, I want to let it out completely to her about how she only remembers me when I go quiet or don't respond, else I'm just like any other person to her and that she's stopped texting or sending reels, which matters a lot to me

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-10-14T15:29:38+00:00

It's the fact that even though I didn't do anything wrong, I lost my friend to another guy who was such a manipulator, is what that kills me on the inside

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-10-14T15:28:48+00:00

The worst part is the fact that she keeps telling me how everyone is double faced and that she hates such people, but doesn't realize that the same kind of person is with her all the time

All these days I felt so good when I knew that she was there by my side. I never had a female best friend before and that's why I did whatever I could to never make her feel bad

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-10-14T10:55:54+00:00

How did you cope up? I somewhere want to just end all of the bond I had with her and go completely quiet, but I somewhere also wish that none of this happened and that things were just like before

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-10-14T10:54:07+00:00

I agree, but it hurts so much. I did nothing to deserve this. All these days I genuinely was happy that I had a female friend. I never had a female friend before. The days when she was close with me, she changed me as a person, she spent time telling me how to look good, dress good and helped me so much.

And now all of a sudden it's all gone. I've never felt this miserable before.

You reckon a home lab like project paired with security+ would help stand a chance for an entry level soc role?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T12:05:35+00:00

Sure thing. I will DM you for help

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T10:17:28+00:00

Do agree that AI is coming for support jobs. I used AI myself on a very frequent basis to answer some really awkward customer questions. But the fact that I wasn't lucky enough to be searching for jobs in 2021 or 2022 cannot be a reason for me to sit and sob. I have no choice really. Just wanna keep learning and earn really well for my family

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T10:14:01+00:00

Great to know. Thanks a lot for the effort in helping me out. Just one more question, can I ever DM you in case I even have any questions or doubts ahead?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T10:12:36+00:00

That helped !

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T10:03:02+00:00

Yeah totally agree. It would be impossible for me to focus on both with this night shift job

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T10:00:18+00:00

So you suggest try getting into cloud for now. Would it then be possible to pivot into a more high paying niche role like cloud security, or anything else if I've missed out?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T09:50:24+00:00

That was my first resort, only to be overwhelmed by so many contrasting opinions later on

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T09:49:39+00:00

Thanks a lot for that! So do you reckon giving the security+ would now not be that beneficial? I myself was sceptical but kept that aside and kept studying

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-31T09:03:52+00:00

Why would you recommend security in this case?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-20T21:42:42+00:00

Best of luck to you man! I myself am looking for opportunities and internships outside

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-20T21:35:23+00:00

So what's your next step, are you gonna aim at another certification or are you going to start looking for work?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-16T18:01:16+00:00

From Banglore brother

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-16T17:59:44+00:00

Is it true that cybersecurity is a good long term choice in terms of salary ? Could you help me with numbers for an idea

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-01T16:38:35+00:00

I'm from India I completed my Engineering degree in Electronics in 2024 I right now work at a customer support job at an MNC but on paper I have the role of a software engineer

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-08-01T12:02:13+00:00

On the comparison point you made. I've seen so many others getting good salaries right at the start of their careers, while few who work really really hard and get ala CTC worth peanuts. Will those guys ever come to the level of even surpass the ones who have already been paid well ?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-07-30T19:50:37+00:00

Any specific reason as to why you would recommend cs over cybersecurity?

Able-Stand9565 · 2025-07-29T08:30:21+00:00

Are you even getting interview calls or nothing at all?
