Let me share a quick story too. I just landed a first job as a SOC analyst without any prior work experience in cybersecurity. I did free labs, google cybersecurity certification, lots of self education from free resources like this amazing channel. The position was originally listed as 'at least 2 years of experience' so was not really having high hopes but tried anyway. Interviewers were super cool about everything, saying that its mainly about attitude and will. Their thought process is that you can learn from trainings what you lack in knowledge, but for them the main focus was mindset, passion and willingness to work on yourself. Starting in march, wish me luck :) If I could do it, you can do it!
wish everyone would read this comment!
Wow! Congratulations on your successful job experience! X
Its so important to believe in yourself and don't look at the work expectations
Good Lucy my friend
I hope u get everything you dream of I also want to to become a soc analysis.... I'm nervous as hell I can't lie buy I hope to get to where you are soon good luck k my friend
I’m not even gonna lie, you got me at the ‘endless pursuit of foundation’ part. Too real
very common, I’ve seen a lot!
This guy is the absolute 🐐
Literally the CYBERSECURITY GURU
🙏🏻
This is a fantastic video. You can tell Unixguy really cares about us.
Negative thoughts tend to creep in at times but I am determined to not let my fear of failure/the unknown get the better of me.
you got this 🤝
Which free labs did you do after Google cyber security professional certificate
@@UnixGuy can you help me out , I need to connect with you
If possible provide your socials or place where you reply to messages
Ya Unixguy is awesome!! So happy I found him! I gotta see if I can sign up for a video chat at some point
I just passed my security+ exam yesterday and definitely feeling lost on what or how to do next. Thank you for providing good advice and context, I feel a lot more confident 😊
Congratulations
Next week I will attempt my security+ exam.
Can u give me any tips or any guide to pass my exam
@@Mr.Ali444. Thank you!
1. Skip the PBQs (performance based questions), do them last. This is advice that I took when doing the exam and I found that I had a lot more time to review my answers and was able to focus more on the PBQs when i got back to them. Some people spend way too much time on them then dont have time to think the other questions through.
2. The exam does want you to know definitions for certain terms/topics, but its deeper than that. For example, sure you might generally know what a firetruck is. But how fast can it go, what tools does it have to do its job, what risks can it reasonably accept to complete its objectives, and so on. Make sure you have good context and understanding of each of the learning objectives.
3. Lastly, PRACTICE EXAMS. Take as many as you can until you regularly start getting maybe 87%-90% percent passing scores (security+ isn’t percentage based but this should provide a buffer for you). Do different exams from different providers, i cant recommend any particular one, but theres plenty of free ones out there.
Hope this helps and good luck, you got this!!
congrats on passing! depends on your goal, I have videos with roadmaps to pretty much every specialisation
@@Mr.Ali444. Make sure you understand whatever you are exposed to (in the exam objectives). Don't rely on memorization only it won't help you that much, an important thing don't stress yourself about memorizing all the acronyms but instead know what they do is vital.
For the practical part make sure you use lab (use the terminal) for the flags and most importantly use practice test materials to prepare your mind on answering questions in the exam style.....please please understanding is vitally vital...and for the questions you fail while practicing take a little time to understand how it works.
I suggest you to check out Professor Messer Study Group that may help also.
Finally when feel ready, go through the exam objectives again and explain every little bullet point to yourself.
And remain calm before taking the exam you will be successful.
Stay blessed
Take a help desk job at an MSP and follow one of Unix guys road maps
While you are labbing you will experience different software which will help you understand what path you want to take.
I'm commeting this to come back in the future as a proof that following your tips has helped me to land my first cybersecurity job
Can’t wait to hear about your success story!
Thank you so much for your content. Best channel around 🎉 I’m 31 and pivoting into cyber security after working as a music producer, songwriter and audio engineer. Currently, finishing up Google cybersecurity course and taking CompTIA sec+. I’m so excited to follow your roadmaps and land my first job! Deeply appreciate your knowledge, wisdom and encouragement 🙏🏼
awesome work! excited to follow your journey 🎉
I finished the Google Cert 4 months ago and haven't started applying yet, as I'm always creating excuses for not starting. 😅
I've just started the ISC2 entry-level course preparation for its exam and found out about that in one of your videos. Thanks a lot, BTW! )
Mate, this video was helpful! Cheers for that! :)
awesome! once you finish ISC2 it’s time to stop doing entry levle certs and pick something harder and more hands-on
Genuinely feel like you were describing me, there. Especially regarding the procrastination and 'IT Foundation' excuses, to avoid applying for jobs.
I work in Game Development, coding in Python and C#, and 3D rigging etc - so I have some advantages over others. I just need to get on with it and stop doubting myself.
You have more ‘foundation’ than most people 😎
I am changing my career now. 15 years working as network engineer, now i want to move to cybersecurity.
you have an excellent background! follow any roadmap I have in my videos and you’lm get there!
Actually, it would be interesting to hear your perspective on that career change. It probably should be quite easy for you, considering your background, but that's just my good guess.
Would you mind to share your thoughts in a couple of sentences, perhaps?
@@UnixGuy my background is in software development (~6 years) and really want to try cyber, but I don't know where to start? Do I have the right background? Do you think the jobs out there are available?? I'm super scared of the current economy

I am going to try my hardest as soon as I get a computer to make a change.. 10 years as a janitor but want this so bad
another great video from you! 2:10 i really agree here, as a college student, i took CCNA1 (CCNAv7: Introduction to Networks) and configuring switches routers, blabla all the layers of the OSI and all that, i finished it and i forgot a little bit of things not the configuration part, some things from the network fundamentals, i tend to forget alot and i hate that. But anyways thank you for the great video!
good luck in your journey!
@@UnixGuy Thank you so much Unix guy! youve tought me alot
you are legend in Cyber Security... cheers from Melbourne, Australia.
thanks mate! Melbourne crew checking in 🤝
Thanks for this just recently bombed my recent Cybersecurity Analyst interview a month after getting my Security+ fortunately it was a great experience that I can reference from when going in for any future interviews.
100% and security+ is just the beginning of the journey! keep learning and do more interviews to get better
Don't let one bad interview hold you back . That's for sure! You have to have some real strong nerve to get through a few interviews and likely if you gave up, it would be right before the interview you would have landed! Same boat! I have said some pretty stupid things in some interviews!
@@TacoFlavorKisses fortunately the interview I thought I bombed want me for the final interview so wish me luck 🍀

So happy I moved from Desktop support to Cyber Security. Desktop support is dying people need to understand this and the physical work involved is a joke. Plus it is the only position that can't work from home unless you are the SCCM or Hope you have started to move or are all ready doing Intune. Desktop will become a low paid grunt in the near future and Cyber Security was the happiest move I made in IT in a long time! These things are spot on as well. Great video as always.
well done 👏🏻
I am glad there is someone out there who feels how I feel. I work in desktop support as well. I been a field tech for 9 years. You are not lying when you said "the physical work is a joke." The company I work for doesn’t do cross training, any new skill set, I have to self study and apply to a new job within the company. I am seeking to get into cybersecurity myself. As long as there is cybercrime, cybersecurity teams will be needed. I never thought the day would come I would be learning Kali linux, Ubuntu among other things. It’s vast I’m enjoying what I have learned and set up so far. Hopefully in six months to 8 months I can hang up on calls about BSOD and my keyboard not working. 😂✌🏾
I pass my CompTIA Security+ last week , Am preparing to start with my Blue Team Level 1 certification beginning of next month .
best of luck!
I appreciate this video. I’m going for my SCCP certification this Thursday. I’m a IT Technician II and I’ve been in IT for about under a year so I’ve been working my butt off so far.
So much to learn but I’ve been applying to security analyst I roles to try to get my foot in the door in cyber security. I’m not sure what I want to specialize in yet but I want to keep growing in my skillset. Thanks for the wonderful video.
keep it up! have a browser through my videos. I have specific certs/projects recommendations that will speed up your journey!
Absolute quality! Transparency appreciated 😆
🙏🏻
Just started cybersecurity and your video was the first video I came across when I checked TH-cam.
Your channel is amazing!!!
Thank you so much!
Glad to hear that! Enjoy the journey 🤝
I just finished my Cybersecurity BS last month (January) and started the Cloud Security roadmap. I still feel this way more often than not. Just need to keep your end goal at the forefront and zero in on that, block all the other negative thoughts and nonsense out.
you got this 🤝
Hugely underrated channel. I really wish everyone trying to break in to cyber could hear your video advice. Awesome video!
-from a SOC analyst with no degree 🙂
thanks for your kind words and well done on landing the SOC role! let’s spread the message and reach more people 🤝
@OG_Anime_ sure! The first cybersecurity certifications I got were Security+ and Blue Team Level 1.
I should note that prior to those, I had A+ and Network+, and 2 years of Tier 1 IT support experience. While these things definitely helped in the grand scheme of things, it's not necessary to land a SOC Analyst role, although I believe it would make you stand out more. Network+ is far more important than A+ in security.
I also want to point out the importance of home-labbing, doing online labs, and documenting what you learn on a blog or LinkedIn page so that hiring managers can see it. I was able to have nearly an entire page of cybersecurity experience without ever having worked in a position where 'security' was in my title due to building up cybersecurity-related homelab projects, and also online training like Blue Team Labs Online and TryHackMe.
thank you my friend for everything. i really enjoy watching you im half way in WGU and will get 15 certs after graduating. i love you and keep up the good work! thanks for giving back to the community!
Best of luck!
Hitting all topics in the head! Thanks so much for making these videos!!! 🎉
You are so welcome!
Hands down one of the best YT channels for cybersecurity.

I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and you have helped me put my thoughts straight and start working on transitioning from a tech services role to cyber security. Already planned out my next 6 months -- AZ-104 -> apply for jobs -> AZ-500 -> keep applying for jobs - > PJPT -> keep applying and keep on learning
keep going 🤝
@@UnixGuy Thanks!! What are your thoughts on this path?? I came with this after your tier cert video..
@@JorgeRuiz14 its good, i have videos with specifc pathways that are better than the tier list video :)
Some companies are just plain stupid, they ask for things that I bet not even their best engineers possess. Like 10 years of this and that.
yeah it happens unfortunately!
Always 💯
Thank you for the content you share Ive always been interested in the field but watching your videos has made me realize how possible it is to start so excited to start my journey

Thank you for your clarification and for the encouragement ,i made this mistakes.
i just finished my Google cybersecurity certificate and planning to start applying for jobs,though so far like you said many companies wants candidates to have at least minimum 2+ years experience.
continue to study for harder certs and follow one of my roadmaps, the google cert is just the beginning, and enjoy the journey 🤝
I'm not even applying for a year. I'm doing OK in desktop support and want next years bonus... a year of studying a few certs then I'm ready. I can't go in too entry level. My google cert and next security+ i dont feel is enough for me so i have a few intermediate to do. Htb and more hands on
Enjoy the journey!
Thank you . People are fortunate enough to have A person like you who is very experienced and motivating others who are down in confidence and lack the prerequisites is something very rare to see. Goddess bless you.
I have some questions for you to guide me which i will do soon. But the problem for me is i saw many of your videos and i have to order them as a playlist to my requirement so that i can get what i need. Thanks a ton for your service. ❤🎉

What if you have a bachelor's in computer software engineering, 3 internship experience, 4 certs (Security+, A+ (both) and az900) and still cannot get a Cybersecurity job. I also practice on my HomeLab. Anything I should change or do.
because you only did one very basic cyber related cert. do these IF you want to learn cybersecurity properly:

I got a genuine question I’m getting my A+ cert should I apply for desk position now? Then work on getting my other certs? Just to get my foot in the door
If you started with the A+ then yeah finish it asap and move on ,
I have a BSc. in Business Computing and an MSc. in Cyber security and still can't get a job 😢
sorry to hear that! unfortunately a lot of universities dont teach practical skills. Please pick a roadmap from my videos and follow it through
Thanks for all this valuable information. I have off topic question. I'm about to start my Google Cert. I have Surface Pro 5th Gen. Is this sufficient for starting out or would you recommend a MacBook or regular Windows Laptop? Thanks for any help.
should be fine! do the cert with it, and if u run into issues then look at upgrade but u shouldnt need to
So my issue is I don’t see many soc l1 roles in Melbourne . Should I apply for cybersecurity analyst roles?
yes please!!!
Currently studying for the A+ cert, then planning to work in IT while doing a bachelor in Cyber Security once finished with the cert.
I initially planned to do that because I have no experience whatsoever and wanted to learn the fundamentals (just like you said: « to better understand the system that you are securing ») to then start applying for Cyber Security jobs.
Are you suggesting that someone in my situation should apply to lev 1 Cyber Security jobs (SOC analyst for example) right away instead of going through IT jobs?
I know that this is what you are saying in your videos (I’ve watched a lot of them) but don’t you think that learning the basics of IT and computation gives you important knowledge that will help in your Cyber Security carreer?
As I explained in the video (and all the other videos), the cyber certs that I list will teach you ‘IT’ as well
I just graduated and have already started sec+ and network+ , but I’m unsure I should continue on my own until im ready for a job or apply to university and go to uni first 😂😢
you graduated from what? if u just finished school and you struggle with self-study then university might be good

I’d question your job search method. Search for broad cyber jobs, sometimes titles can be misleading, and choose different job search sites
From Africa, is it possible to get a job in the US and how would I go about it.
very hard, best to focus on getting a job in your home country to gain experience first

Hi UnixGuy. I come from life sciences background (B. Tech Biotechnology). Though I come from life sciences background, I've always loved working with my computer. In my bachelor's degree, I took 4 papers from IT department (Front end and Back end fundamentals, Python programming, Cyber Security, Cyber Forensics). It's been 2 years since my graduation and I wanted to pursue a career in Cyber Security. I've completed ISC2 CC and I'm currently doing Google Cybersecurity certification. During my college, I've done some certifications from Cisco. In recent times, I started doubting myself whether I've chosen the right career or not. I'm feeling so low for the past days and I don't know what to do. Can you give me some advice?
There is no right or wrong paths my friend. The only option you have is to continue to study cyber security after work and try to land a job - if you like it great, continue, if not, then you can go back to your life science jobs
I dont see any other options.
@@UnixGuy Thank You
What do you think about CPTS?
its good
So please, I've networking certs from Cisco, I've Endpoint Security badge from Cisco, I also have intro to cyber security too, and also java and python.

Hi UnixGuy! I'm about to graduate with a degree in computer information systems and I was wondering what would you recommend for me to do to pursuit in a cybersecurity field? should I go and work on certification after this related to cybersecurity like Google Cybersecurity certification ?
yep the google cert is a great start, once you finish it work your way through the certs in this playlist:
Start Here | Get into Cyber Security

slowly and surely you can finish a lot of them in 8-10 months
@UnixGuy thank you very much!! You're such a helpful person!!
If I am in a non-developed country, can I get an interview in another country remotely from my home country? Is there any chance?
I answered that in this video:

I am a student in Computer Science in my first year and I want to work in Cyber Security before graduation is this possible?
yes but its going to be hard! start doing some certs:

is doing a bootcamp that helps with certifications, CV, and 100% job guarantee after completion worth it for only £1000?
I’d be very wary about bootcamps promising guaranteed job
