Is a masters in cybersecurity necessary if I am interested in staying a civilian employee for the Air Force or would certifications be a better route? Looking to move from a Test Engineer to cybersecurity.

Not at all necessary. As we mentioned when you asked about the masters a few days ago, it's not necessary.

Certs are the better route.

This is a regular thing and it’s the fucking weekend. I could use a break.

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience. I worked as a mortgage loan officer (which is sales) for 2 years after college, but since mortgage is such a niche industry, no hard skills transfer and have no relevant undergrad internships unfortunately. I know I can essentially get any sales job I want in finance IE: financial advisor etc. but don’t want to be stuck in sales forever. Any advice?
