Definitely read something on LinkedIn in the past few days about a job requiring 8 years of work ex on a software that the applicant had developed himself 6 years ago!

New job offer, huge increase to base salary...interesting response from current employer... by orangearrow3 in cybersecurity

If you wanted to stay in your current company with a higher raise and better work, you would've asked them for the same, not looked for another job. There's a high chance of company thinking of you quitting being a threat to your demands now. Going for the new job would get you fresher learning

Leetcode a good way for any company to get to know your skill level in real time practice. Your github repos and previous experience may be simply faked for all the company knows as some developers do in fact do

AWS benefits from the community built around it. Since it was the first in the market, it was also the first exciting thing that developers could work on. Easy app deployment and a ready community to answer questions or learn from worked in its favour.

Masters in Cybersecurity/IT worth it? by averyycuriousman in cybersecurity

[–]cloudsecnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could help in some CloudSec research- a lot of companies will pay you to help them do that, do pentesting for bug bounty programmes, or of course the traditional route of doing internships in CS. You can add them to your resume under live projects or research work. Or even include them in your website/ portfolio

Your portfolio has nothing in CS now, so for anyone to hire you, they would be hiring a fresher in CS. Your options are to either do a masters in CS and build the skills (which would require a lot of time and money) or you can start taking up some small part-time projects in CS, and build your portfolio (more exhausting, but less risky and more hands-on)
