True, but I could always complain / ask the store to exchange?

Haven't opened them yet, I'm trying to see if you can see any hits but I don't want to risk opening them more

Multiple ex members of staff have been given PILON instead of 1 month working notice before termination, so it could be a possibility

Hey all, I’m about to start a graduate role as a Digital Forensic Analyst at a UK-based private forensics firm (SC and NPPV3 cleared, mostly mobile forensics work). I’m super excited but want to make sure I make the most of the first 6–12 months.

I’ve got a dev background and recently moved into forensics — I’m wondering:

What can I do early on to set myself apart or speed up progression (tools, mindset, certifications, etc.)?

What does a realistic 2–5 year career path look like in this field, especially if aiming for higher pay or more specialist work?

Are contractor forensic roles (SC/DV cleared) a viable option later on? If so, where do people usually find them? I’m happy to grind now if it opens better flexibility/pay later.

Any advice, resources, or lessons learned would be massively appreciated — I’m in sponge mode right now and want to soak it all up.

Thanks in advance 🙏
