It's a lot easier to land a job once you already work in IT/tech. But landing such a first job in the first place, is a literal hell. Never wanna go through that again

I’ve been applying for sometime now. I haven’t landed a job yet. Since June I get interview every week sometimes twice a week but no luck yet. As you said it very discouraging applying for tech jobs for the first time but giving up too is not an option. Thank you for sharing your experience I feel much better that I am not alone .

I came here to say you’ve come a long way in just a year? Loving the content and the absolute powerhouse of information you give on this field. Entertaining is S tier.

I just watched your vid today on "$1 vs $100k Cyber Certs" and your production value and overall stage presence has gone through the roof! Congratulations on your success! Keep up the good work, love your stuff!

my last job search (summer 2022) took over 3 months!

When you say recruiter, is that a recruiter at the company where you're applying or a recruiter that finds candidates on outside companies' behalfs?

[shafialanower]

Are the applications typically filter by like a bot looking for certain keywords or an HR?

[HailedJunk]

That was your response rate with a bachelors and a bit of tech professional experience? That is a damn doomerpill for someone with an associates, no experience, and just security plus

How much are you making in your current position?

[williamsenior]

Dude this is discouraging, I am thinking about quitting my tech support job and complete a cyber security degree .
