Yes. Go for it, assuming you can manage the total expenditure

What are the job opportunities like after a 1year masters/ do they help with campus placements etc
Do consider all these factors.

A very common requirement in cybersecurity jobs is prior experience- this creates hurdles and is a source of frustration for a lot of people.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
