Any suggestions how to get my foot in the door of a cyber practice ? I've been in IT Audit for about a year and 4 months. I'm in the process of taking the CISSP exam as well.

Of course. However , changing practices isn't a doable as people make it seem. Your partner has to let you go. Seeing that IT Audit always has work and is constantly understaffed , there's not much willingness for partners to let go of a resource.

I just helped someone move practices. If you have connections to a director or partner in cyber it shouldn't be too hard. They will want to keep you in the form over having you leave.

I have a mentor and am starting my own cyber audit firm. IMHO, too hard to navigate through the big firm culture to get on the right project. Plus the rates as an independent actually make me want to get out of bed in the AM - my transition will be in the next month.

Send me a message and I'll refer you. I know all those folks. Wanna go fed or commercial?

Commercial, what email can I use to reach you ?

City?

ATL

You know we have a cyber practice that isn't just IT audit right?

It feels like my pay and title are lower than my scope of duties. I manage Youtube channels and do all strategy, planning, talent management, rework content for socials, reporting, graphic design, + a bunch of other stuff. Do you think I should be something like Video Content Manager? A Strategist maybe? My company doesn't have career pathing & I think they'd be happy to keep giving me more work with the same pay. TIA!!

I have been a software developer (professionally) for about 7 years now, but I’ve decided to move out from that job and do something else (still in tech).

Tbh, I am scared. But I have set myself one year to learn something new.
I also want to go for a job that pays more (55k€ currently). I live in Paris, France, and software developers are not well paid.
Any suggestion for a career transition?

How do you as the attorney balance your advice with your client’s wishes? Meaning when what the client wants is not, in your opinion, in their best interest, when they want to settle for less “to be done,” or pay more “to get him out of the house,” when do you stop pushing back and give in? I’ve lost at least one client before for pushing too hard to get what they were entitled to when they wanted to give in and I’m fear I’m facing something similar now.
