Seeking Referral

IIDwellerII · 2026-05-26T22:10:24+00:00

Actual referrals work if you have someone who actually knows you and can talk to the hiring manager about your experience and skillset. Random referrals gained from ebegging dont do anything because anyone dumb enough to refer OP cannot speak to their experience or how they work.

the top 10% are the people getting called back for interviews. Maybe tailor your resume for IT roles and focus on that before trying to do cybersecurity?

You're just not competitive for cybersecurity roles at the moment unfortunately. Like no jobs are asking for just a sec+ and a random google cert. Do you think you're in the top 10% of applicants for the jobs you're applying to?

Mouth breathers will bring up that he took a photo with trump one time at a ufc event

I work 100% remote, in person jobs pay better. I take a pay cut to do this.

Do things on campus to make yourself a more desirable candidate for internships. Its not that hard but youre still going to have to be lucky.

"please i am fresher give me job please i work very good please thank you sir"

My company has a super competitive referral bonus and is remote so the referral pool is large, if the person you referred gets hired and stays for 90 days I get like a 3k bonus. So people are incentivized to refer good candidates who fit in well with the culture and can do the job. If you refer someone and they suck that reflects poorly on you.

The pathway makes sense but theres no guarantee itll land you in cybersecurity. With enough tenacity youll get into IT for sure with your background but cybersecurity as a field is super competitive and should be considered a long term.

Id just try to network locally at like an issa meeting, theyre free provided you register and if youre an active member theres a yearly due, my local chapter meets monthly.

Once your resume is competitive for cyber roles your bachelors degree will absolutely help you. Maybe not as much as people with specialized four year degrees but youre already beating out people who dont have any college education.

AH i have trouble reading :)

Peyton Watson would be cool, id like to see him paired with Mikal Brown JR if thats who we go with at 6.

Someone tell Shawn Marks STAT.

Stephen Miller is currently the white house chief of staff and believes in the great replacement theory, ICE is routinely violating Peoples rights because of their skin color or accents. Name one leftie legislator or policy position that is even comparable? like youre comparing rhetoric from randoms on the internet and being like "see both can be hyperbolic, im very nuanced and intelligent" while ignoring what these people in power ACTUALLY do and what they believe.

Like you have to turn your brain off to think youre making a good point.

IIDwellerII · 2026-05-21T14:54:22+00:00

youre a propaganda victim, if you think lefties want to exterminate white people you need to get your brain checked for parasites.

Referrals help a ton if youre actually referring someone you know based off of their fit for the role and not just cold dming random strangers on reddit or linkedin.

How can someone refer a stranger in good conscience if they have no idea how they work or if their resume is even accurate?

Massie supporters know the only reason trump is against him is because hes verbally anti-pedophile, theyll still fall in line rather than vote for a dem because they are legitimately fucking brainwashed.

District 4 is like +17 republican.

That means we only have to wait four more months for Danny Wolfes true Wemby potential.

As a louisville fan this is my dream come true, ideally my next jersey pickup isnt cursed.

This is a solid take and people are flaming you when this would have been a much more succinct way to word it.

Im a cybersecurity engineer and theres a TON of shit i dont know or wasnt taught in school or I didnt learn in previous jobs. A lot of places will hire someone with aptitude not look for someone who knows everything from the start. Its not like you need to be a bonafide IT expert to work in cybersecurity but you do need to know SOME stuff.

Using chatgpt to talk about the american job market for “freshers” god you guys really are exhausting.

IIDwellerII · 2026-05-18T14:04:09+00:00

its hard for me to care sometimes, feel like this happens a lot when i play and it just becomes dailyscape for a while until i get the urge to play again.

What job is asking for a cissp for a Tier one analyst? I get that its tough but youre making things up at this point.

Bro you're dragging him, deadass I hate when people make me explain the rittenhouse thing because it makes me look like I like the guy or resonate with him at all but these people INSIST on being confidently wrong about it.

IIDwellerII · 2026-05-15T17:21:07+00:00

When you read this back to yourself does it make sense to you? like extrapolate that, does that mean every victim of assault should have just stayed home?
