No chance any of you would be willing to share what other things I should do to get into the Cybersecurity field. I'm a recent grad with an AS in Cybersecurity, and I'm finding that I can't even get into the helpdesk or any tech job right now. I picked up Network+ and am studying the book for my N+ cert.

I am genuinely curious how you went about getting a 50% raise after taking a year off, after getting laid off? Usually a sabbatical like that puts you back, but you actually got more of a raise than most people who worked that whole year, AND you didn't even leave your firm voluntarily. That's the most impressive move to me.
