Looking to transition out of IT audit (SOC reporting/ IT risk assessments) into something more cyber focused. 1 YOE. Will recruiters look down on lack of technical experience? Also, Saw a role for Cyber Associate - IAM at PwC, what does the day to day look like if anyone’s there right now? Thanks!

I don’t have advice but I’m in the same boat. IT audit/compliance stinks

Even though it’s still somewhat audit/compliance, I think GRC type roles in industry can be a bit better

Only if you cannot demonstrate your interest or progression towards upskilling technically.

E.g. have you completed or are you completing any technical certs? Have you done any home projects?

Also, audit and GRC experience combined with technical experience is more valuable than somebody who is purely technical. So don't discard your previous experience.

Getting some more technical certs might help to offset the low YOE to show recruiters and hiring managers that you are serious about transitioning and gaining technical knowledge that you currently lack.

IAM can be a more technical role requiring coding and implementation work. I’d look at other roles to start.
