Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future..

I tell people getting a certification is like passing the written portion of the driving exam. It means you know what the steering wheel is, and what the turn signals are, but it doesn’t mean you can drive. Getting certs is very foundational knowledge, and you have to build your own systems, network, apps etc to show that you know you’re stuff. Especially when it comes to cyber security. Security means you need to protect something. Which means you need to know how things work, and most importantly how things break. You only learn those things be doing and putting in the work. If you’re not a curious person and/or don’t like putting in the work, tech is not for you. Things change every day, and if you’re not willing to stay on the beat, then you’ll be left behind quick.

For example, can you configure/deploy a firewall, EDR, IDS/IPS tools can you troubleshoot various endpoints, are you willing to read a plethora amount of documentation on the tools required and that’s like 30% of the task.

You are correct about this video. Been in IT and currently a senior network analyst. Depends on the company you are working with. The jobs that will pay nearly a six figure salary are with government contractors or directly with the government as their funds are consistent and lot higher than private companies such as a local cyber security company in your city. Government has more security clearance and do require certs 100% of the time due to DoD requirements. Sadly, if you do the government route, you are stuck with folks who have no passion for what they do and there is a lack of creativity and employee engagement because government jobs in that class do not focus on employee - they focus on metrics and the processes ordered by a higher commission in your department. You get paid well, but I warn you that you will not get the same level of TLC from private companies that will take care of you. Your position can be replaced at anytime and are not worried they will lose a person. You dispensable in government sectors so I suggest you stay away from it UNLESS the company operates as a sole owner who has a government contract but the company also offers services to 3rd party. For the most part, Certs are just an HR checklist for private and corp. Most places hire based on experience. They call your previous employer and validate your experience and the position and that is it.

Took me 6 years to get my bachelors while working on the side as a cameraman / car detailer / studio tech and volunteering for cyber patriots. Got my cert before graduating (sec+) found sec+ useless in my situation. Got my ISC^2 assoc cert since i dont have 4 years of experience (4 years since I have a degree, but its normally 5). Got a job as a tech... was never able to use my education because of how the company operated. Didnt like said company because there were certain policies and sop that I ddnt personally agree with.. so I quit. Pay was pretty good, but doesnt feel satisfying. Bottom line is, I love cyber and I dont mind not earning a lot of money, as long as I get to work with like minded individuals. That being said, I decided to join the military. To be in this field, youll get burned out real quick if you dont get genuine satisfaction doing what youre doing and believing something you dont 100% agree with. Money is jusy money guys.

If someone thinks they’re going to land a six figure job right out the gate just by a certificate they are delusional probably $60k-$70k max if your just starting off but if you feel as if you’ve developed the skills & you’re confident then I’d say it’s time to look for a different organization that will pay you more.

The certs show you’re qualified but that’s not the only thing they look at experience matters too. It’s competitive also some ppl have degrees to increase earning potential but then on the other hand I know ppl with no certs no college degree who got a help desk job. Then field tech And evolved to network engineer system admin and etc… so honestly there’s a lot of routes to go and not everything will work for everyone. Different routes will work for different people

It is a good starting salary for sure but to make the big bags you need to be focused and specialized. No one pays you six figures because of a sec+ cert😂

There's a whole lot of capping in some of these comments. But do you. Lying to people or phrasing your experience in specific ways to make it seem like you did it further hurts people's chances. A Sec+ without any IT experience is worthless. However, you can connect with your current employers' IT teams, volunteer to come on projects, and ask to shadow people. Build relationships and provide impact, and when opportunities present themselves, they will think of or at least connect you with those who can align you with what you want to do.
