I started in June, and this week, on the first of October, I got a trainee position in cybersecurity. I completed the Google course, the Cisco course, and the TryHackMe course. I also took a course offered by a university near my home. Besides that, what definitely helped me was the CV in that format. I started job hunting and within a week, I had two interviews. In one, I got the job, in the other, I didn’t, but that doesn't matter haha. Thanks ❤

As someone who broke into cyber I can confirm this video is a terrific way to learn and develop the skills and foundation needed. This gentleman absolutely knows what he is talking about.

[carlosferrin]

Thanks for all the guidance and advice. I just landed my first cybersecurity role following your videos and content.

[ILLWill]

I had a different path not set in stone but i will definitely switch to this. I had started the Google course and stopped but i will definitely get back to it. I have a new baby with my Wife coming in January and my goal is to be out of the trucking industry and possibly/hopefully working remotely at home to better support my family not just financially but being there physically the majority of the day. Thanks UnixGuy🙏🏾

[garvinortiz]

I am starting today, as a complete begginer. I'll be back in 6 months to confirm my progress. I know it's not gonna be easy but I've already braced for impact. If you're starting anytime soon, join me...

Thanks UnixGuy. I'm returning to IT after 15 years in different professions. This looks like a great start for a cyber security career

[fjannat]

Today, October 5th, 2024, marks the beginning of my journey towards securing my first job. I'll follow the guidance, stay dedicated, and work hard. Let's see how long it takes for me to return with the news of landing my first role!

[bliccyricky]

[TheSlyDragon]

I recall when you did a similar video to this last year and thanks to you a landed my first Cybersecurity jobs as a SOC Analyst. I think I mentioned the interview to you around February so the recruitment process was long but I'm finally where I wish I was a year ago now.

[TheHelpfulHub]

Bro how u r so honest, people out there just making videos for clicks bait without value providing

[Emk-dvmg]

As someone who has roughly a decade of experience, this roadmap is incredible! Thank you for releasing this and potentially helping a lot of us get the true roadmap that we needed!

[nostalgicnow]

It’s crazy you mentioned the local cybersecurity groups and conferences I just started researching these 2 days ago definitely going to join all in my city🙌🏾
