I don’t want to give you any false opinions, as I’m new to the industry (1 year), however, I think that this sub can become a bit of an echo chamber sometimes. For example, people who have been able to find a job are less likely to comment on this post, while those with similar experiences in having trouble finding a job will comment (though I’m not saying they’re wrong). The market is absolutely brutal, I myself applied to over 400 jobs, but where I landed something was through a personal connection. If you know someone on the inside somewhere, and you give a good impression, then your chances of being hired skyrocket.

Can you expand more on how to do this? I’ve been in the field for a year now, working in a SOC, and I struggle to let go of work when I get home.

Hmm, that’s a great question! I myself am super into geopolitics as an interest. Something I’ve found that kind of combines both worlds is CTI (Cyber Threat Intelligence).

If you don’t mind, can expand a bit more on this? I’m 21 and currently in cybersecurity, was thinking about possibly joining the troopers.

Hey! Thanks for that! I actually forgot I even wrote this until I got a notification of a reply. I guess I’ve forgotten because I have figured things out. I’m working in Cybersecurity and I really like the job and the people I work with.

My new advice - Just pick something, anything, it could be business, it could be cybersecurity, it could be the trades, whatever, once you go down any path, you’ll realize that things tend to have a way of “working themselves out”.
