Why's it's so hard getting job in cybersecurity roles these days. I have the qualifications, I have a little experience which I'm eager to expand through employment, I have Certificates. Though not the CISSP. I have knowledge but never got a chance to prove in the interview, guess why coz I didn't got one in a long while.

It used to easy earlier, people just come across any entry level profile and start working in it even they not have much expertise or experience.

Lots of experienced people settling for entry / lower level rolls. You see people with 15+ years on them going for senior roles. No way you can compete.
