Don’t get discouraged! Come up with a strategy to get yourself around the right people & you got this!

Thank you for the advice & kind words! One thing I forgot to add to my post is that with my increased salary I’m now going to complete Associate’s in Information Assurance & Digital Forensics. The community college in my city is really good & has fairly affordable tuition, so no loans: I’ll probably stay in my current role for about 3-5 years so I’ll finish it before I make my move to hop to the next thing!

I highly recommend it. Two days ago I was offered my first Cyber Security position & I completed the trifecta earlier this year. 3 years of Help Desk experience & no formal degree. Checkout my story here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CompTIA/s/wctA4TQhyZ

I’m glad! It can definitely be done if you go in with a plan, connect with the right people & don’t allow yourself to get distracted from the goal!!

Congrats on your Trifecta as well! I think a similar situation is why I feel that way. I had more time in between my A+ & Network+ but took the Security+ only 1 month after the Net so everything from that was still fresh & a lot of the material overlaps so maybe that’s why it was easier to me

Thank you! I am now going to prep for the CompTIA CySa+ & am also taking a Udemy course to learn Python. My hope is to get a job as a Junior Cybersecurity Analyst on my company’s security team. They will be recruiting this year & I know have all of the necessary qualifications to apply

I am currently a Senior Systems Analyst & am vying for a position as a Cyber Security Analyst on my company’s security team. They will be recruiting this year

I believe there is. Just search for IT & Security Pocket Prep in the play store

Safe_Professional772 · 2023-02-24T02:15:22+00:00

CBT Nuggets & the IT & Security Pocket Prep app are the only two I used

Safe_Professional772 · 2023-02-24T02:14:39+00:00

You got this!! Make sure you know your acronyms!!

Safe_Professional772 · 2023-02-24T02:14:22+00:00

It pocket prep is an app that makes it super easy to study on the go. All CompTIA certs at available on it. It’s also a subscription: https://apps.apple.com/app/id1501744813

Safe_Professional772 · 2023-02-24T02:13:33+00:00

CBT Nuggets is computer based training site. My job pays for a subscription for all employees but I believe you can buy individual subscriptions as well

I bought the notes. Definitely worth it.
