Can you make a video on how you personally got to the position you are in now? Like how did you get started? What were your first steps personally? What do you recommend for the upcoming generations?

I just signed my offer letter as a Junior Pen tester! So excited to start!

[hxmo]

Amazing insight into the field! Definitely makes me want to work even harder to become a PenTester

This guy's got RGB fans and a Bugatti Chiron in the background... That's how you know this profession makes money.

I enrolled in College for a Cyber Security degree and I haven’t been sure if it was the degree I’d like to run with but after this, I’m sure that I want to work as a Pen Tester. Thank you so much for this video

[friedmystery]

I don't know if this intro is new since I came for the zero to hero pentesting but if it is new then congrats and I really like it.

The BEST MENTOR I HAVE COME ACROSS. I am soo glad I found you.

I've watched a few videos and you do a great job of defining Purple Teams as Red + Blue teams, but you never define Red or Blue teams. I presume one team attacks the other's network, but it isn't obvious to someone watching to learn about pentesting with absolutely no background because the boss tossed a post it on their desk late Friday that reads, "Hey, we need the new web app pentested. We're going live Monday." Otherwise, very much enjoying the 15 hour course and learning enough to ask better questions, which is fantastic. Thank you for sharing this.

[PrincePalmUwU]

that's pretty awesome! you're not just working in one field you're working in multiple fields. I like that! i'm not always stuck with just one same job.

Really enjoying your vids. Its honest and it's to the point. People ask to subscribe before videos but its drawn out and annoying. You are to the point with no over done intros lol. You do it without acting either. You do it like it's done in reality. Well done. Keep it up.

Just found your video and it gave me an insight into my future career once I am done with my master degree in cyber security network operations.

Going to a cybersecurity bootcamp soon, and after gaining my experience + certs + even more learning, I hope I can become a Pen Tester. Love the video

[louiem]

This was a good video. I think the only thing I'm a little scared of talking to a group of people, plus writing reports. I know that's part of the job of being pentester. Keep up the group videos.

I've been a System Administrator for 7 years with the DoD and I was looking on changing over to become a Pentester. It is something I've always had a passion for growing up and was wondering where I should start in regards of getting a job. I have A+, Sec+ and Linux+.

[kusapaul]

Am really enjoying this journey since i started following this channel. God will surely bless Adams in multiple folds. Am just a beginner but looking forward to becoming like him someday. I really admire your career.

[rfewrys]

great video, cleared a lot of questions I had. Thank you so much and keep up the good work

Didn't realize this was an older post. It made excited to see your 4, 000 subscribers turned into 286, 000!

[omermujtaba]

Hey awsome video 👍 Can you guide us on the certs and their importance?

[Liryn]

Hi, I am here because a friend of mine told me about you. Nice videos.
