I have been working as a financial and process internal auditor for about 13 years. In 2023, I decided to have a career change and started studying for information security audit and Cyber security analyst , I passed CISA and Cyber Security certification exams, after that, I joined a Cyber Security and GRC boot camp which lasted for 6 months. I am currently looking for an entry role in GRC but have not got any in the last two months. What advice can you give to help me secure a job in GRC

I work in field sales as an IC. My aspirational career path is to end up in people leadership. Recently, an Inside management position opened up that’s been brought to my attention by the hiring director. Question is, is going back Inside the right move to get into started in leadership? Or should I continue down the field path and wait until those field management slots open up?

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $400k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!
