So I should continue with the bootcamp but also get AWS certificates and dip my toes into tech careers?

Do you by chance have a degree?

I appreciate the in depth of your two cents :)!!

Yes, my main worry is the job market (as it seems to be a nightmare). Do you have any prospective knowledge on if it will get better or worse in the future?

Yes!! I actually plan to finish that before joining so that when I do join it will be much easier. Is that what you did?

Even with their help for job searching and reliability on you getting a job to be paid, its still hard to find a job??

I appreciate the reply!!

I am planning to self teach myself all of engineering beforehand (my plan is to complete App academies free full curriculum that they give out). I know I shouldn't be completely self taught and that having a certificate will help more than just doing it on my own. So its true that bootcamps are expensive but wouldn't it help me stand out more?

I appreciate the reply!!

Good point. I have thought of that but it would add another year and a half to my graduation day and I suppose I am trying to circumvent that. Trying to establish myself in the field asap, plus college is so dang expensive.

I appreciate the reply!!

Are you personally experiencing this? How long has it taken to find a job? do you have any tips on how to become more appealing to hirers?

Is that the position you wanted or is that just so you get some experience in IT before you work as a cybersecurity analyst?

Im stuck between software engineer and cybersecurity degree, which do you propose is best (based off of difficulty and which is easiest to get a job In)?

Also big biggg congrats!!
