Comment on Mentorship Monday - Discussions for career and learning!
shellsharks@infosec.pub 1 week agoLet me first say. I don’t really know. I haven’t been looking for jobs (thankfully) and I’m not entry-level. That said, I’ve heard it’s pretty rough 🤷♂️. That said here’s some stuff I’ve written about in the past that could be useful/interesting for you…
- My take on the current infosec job market
- Thoughts on a career in infosec
- How to get into infosec
- Some commentary on how breaking into infosec can be hard
- On the subject of gatekeeping in this field
- A big resource on my path into infosec and reviews of certs/trainings I’ve taken.
- My caution on those who would give you stale career advice. To be clear, this means from me too.
Good luck out there!

Wow. After reading all of that and seeing what you’ve been through, all I can say is that infosec somehow seems worse off than I even imagined. I feel like I’m standing in front of a series of hundred story walls telling me to try harder.
