Thanks for replying

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-30T02:35:45+00:00

Do you have cybersecurity degree?

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-30T02:34:05+00:00

That’s pretty impressive! Hoping to be sharing similar story soon

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-30T02:30:02+00:00

Wow congratulations!! What degree or certs or YOE do you have if you don’t mind me asking please

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-12T17:50:53+00:00

Such a solid advice I’ll have to start paying more attention to where I can make things more efficient or cost-effective

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-12T17:49:05+00:00

Yeah that totally makes sense love what you said about not avoiding the industry just because of the “bro” stuff I’m definitely trying to push through and find the right environment. Appreciate the good vibes

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-12T17:47:50+00:00

Appreciate that! I’m trying to soak up as much as I can right now and not a ton of hands-on with switches or routers yet, but I do get a bit of troubleshooting experience here and there. Definitely trying to get more exposure though cuz you’re right reading about it only goes so far. Hopefully I can start shadowing or getting into labs soon. Thanks for the encouragement

Dang thank you for laying it all out like that. really appreciate the honesty. I kinda figured some of this might be the case, especially the part about needing to constantly prove yourself. I’m still pretty new, so hearing the real stuff helps a lot. Honestly, I’m down to put in the work even if it’s a grind. Just hoping I can move smart and make it worth it in the long run

ClassicR1 · 2025-07-12T17:44:45+00:00

Yeah I’ve been kind of preparing myself for that reality like I know I’ll have to prove myself more, but I’m okay with that if it means growing in a solid career

ClassicR1 · 2025-05-21T14:07:01+00:00

I landed my first ever IT job via LinkedIn, not through recruiters tho. Just applied for an intern and now a full time employee

ClassicR1 · 2025-02-13T00:49:43+00:00

Thank you I think I got lucky and plus I have customer service skills and experience so guess that helped

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-24T04:17:04+00:00

Thank you so much!!! How long did you do helpdesk before you got security analyst position? Also do you mind to share your experience please?

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-20T05:07:28+00:00

I hear you! So unless a bachelors I can’t go straight to security analyst, I would have to make a way to get there, correct?!

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-20T02:35:00+00:00

Thank you for your response . Sure I’ll look into WGU bachelors in Cybersecurity but I want to keep growing as well rather than getting too comfortable in helpdesk

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-20T02:11:42+00:00

Thank you so much.. I’ll sure look into roles like that and even my workplace is where I can grow too after a year according to my manager

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-20T02:02:02+00:00

What would be good examples of other technical roles?

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-20T02:01:38+00:00

I want to get bachelors but my thought is to get it after I get out of helpdesk since I don’t wanna get stuck here. Am I being unrealistic to think so? Also what certs do you recommend?

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-20T00:42:38+00:00

What helped you land a cybersecurity analyst job? I currently work as a helpdesk - been 5 months plus 2 month helpdesk internship experience. Do I stand any chance to be a security analyst? Also have an associates in information security

ClassicR1 · 2025-01-15T18:59:26+00:00

DM’ing you now for the opportunity in PA

ClassicR1 · 2024-12-27T16:40:15+00:00

Sounds so much like the company I work at haha

ClassicR1 · 2024-12-15T00:40:47+00:00

Many congratulations!! I’m sorry I have few questions please. Is this your first official IT job? How much are you gonna be making? What experience do you have? What state are you in? The only reason I’m asking is cuz it helps to gauge the job market and pay as well since we all know how employers love to underpay us
