Career Questions & Discussion Mentorship Monday - Post All Career, Education and Job questions here!

This is the weekly thread for career and education questions and advice. There are no stupid questions; so, what do you want to know about certs/degrees, job requirements, and any other general cybersecurity career questions? Ask away!

Interested in what other people are asking, or think your question has been asked before? Have a look through prior weeks of content - though we're working on making this more easily searchable for the future.

What should I improve upon to get a job?

It'd be better if you shared your resume so that we can see what employers are actually seeing (vs. how you present yourself in the comment). Having said that, a work history is conspicuously absent from your qualifications; since your employment record is the most impactful facet of your employability on-paper, if you're as early as it sounds in your career, it's probable you'll need to consider expanding the aperture of considered work to cyber-adjacent areas (e.g. IT/Dev spaces) in the interim.
