But always a baby!

-hacks4pancakes- • 1d The reason the good faith seniors on here are posting that the junior / mid level market is bad (it is) is because we have watched it crash in real time and a lotta of us are dealing with serious fallout as both hiring managers or mentors. It's genuinely a good faith warning. It's not like, "don't get into the field we love". It's just that for a really long time you could get into cybersecurity with no degree and no IT experience because the demand was so high. And schools, influencers, and parents still play it off that it's like that. That people can work full time remote and make 80k entry salary. It's not. It hasn't been for a couple years. We've been hit by "professionalizing" and oversaturation of graduates. Can you still get in with a sec+, a kali box and a dream? Maybe, if you really meet the right people and get lucky. Pragmatically though, that won't be the case for 99.9% of young people now, and if we care at all we need to counter the "everything is rosy" message people are using to sell boot camps. We are getting hundreds of cybersecurity grads and laid off professionals with work rights applying for positions. How can organizations even take the time to look beyond that at hundreds more juniors with no degree, criminal convictions, a GED, needing a' v sponsor, etc?

You really need to take it seriously and make yourself a top candidate. And these days to be competitive you typically need a bachelors, certs, and some hands on IT work experience. You need a very good professional network. That's not true of every case. People will get lucky. Or they'll have a security clearance or live in the right remote place for an in person only job. It happens. Not often. The best thing we can do is try to enforce that they need to work seriously hard and have solid professional credentials. TLDR we aren't all assholes; some of us are trying to save 20yos from falling for Uncle Bob putting them in a bootcamp to make an easy six figures.

Your attack surface is talking. Are you listening?

Overlooked assets often become the easiest entry points for attackers. As digital environments grow, periodic security checks aren’t enough.
