it’s possible but difficult. I graduated a year ago without certifications
The market is overstaturated with people with certifications, but there is a shortage of people with experience. In this market, experience is greater than certifications.
I have mostly experience in Intelligence Analysis (terrorism and cyber cases) and Program Management. I have done some cyber risk consulting, but after a month of applications...i have yet to receive a callback for Audit/GRC/Cyber Threat analysis. I wanted to leave the Federal Government to transition into the private sector for multiple reasons. I tune my resume for each job posting. My resume demonstrates my ability to anticipate and resolve problems. I have multiple awards from an Intel agency and accomplished a lot within my 8 years there. What could be the issue? Should I focus on certain sectors like Banking, Healthcare, Tech? Is there a satuaturation of Fed Employees so employers aren't impressed. I swear the job market has changed so much in the last few years.
I have all the certs and experience in IT and software engineering, but can't get an interview after 300 applications.
Wow am scared now 😂
