Hey everyone - I am trying to get an entry level position in cyber / info security. Got my BS Cyber and Info Security in 2021. Have 5+ YoE in IT Support. Based in Chicago. Anyone willing to provide a referral or share advice on how to get in? I am applying daily on LinkedIn and Indeed but barely getting interviews. Appreciate any help.

Try focusing on a specific domain, like identity and access management. Look for user admin roles. It’s easier to get your foot in the door if you move from first level support into second level. From there you can move onto other areas.

Hi everyone

Kindly share your experiences here

I have cleared three round of interviews in VMware for a business analyst position. One primary screening and two technical rounds. One more round is scheduled for further discussion. So is it a technical round or not. Also how many rounds are there going to happen.

Revenue cycle management experience is a big plus. Not much ML used in the practice but I'm trying to change that.

In an ideal world you know ML, PowerBI, alteryx, and rev cycle. Bit of a unicorn ask.

If anyone is interested feel free to hit me up.

My temp contract has been extended. I’m relieved to be able to pay the bills, but after giving 70-80 shots a day, I literally dream about giving vaccines almost every night! Struggling to keep positive about finding a new permanent job - I was laid off at the end of April, have applied to over 60 jobs, had 6 interviews, and no offers. I can’t go back to chain retail - it damn near broke me in my 20’s, and it’s much worse now.

Hi,
My current company is going out of business next week. I am rushing to get my next job lined up (probably won’t happen in time but I’m trying my best). My question is: should I be honest about why I’m looking for a new job? Is it wrong to not share this info during my interviews? Is this situation going to affect my interview process somehow? Please share your thoughts and wisdom! Thanks!

I’ve been with my current company for a little over 5 years now and since the start of the pandemic have been WFH. I absolutely love WFH and have always wanted a position in which I could WFH. There is talk of bringing everyone back to the office full time and that’s not what I would like to happen. I’ve been searching for a new position in which it would be a remote role. My current company also said I am maxed out in term of what they are willing to pay salary wise.
