The speaker stated DFIR as being a transitional career. Basically you need to be a cop or lawyer first. And, stating "soft skills" over experience will not get you past HR. In addition, speaker failed to answer what entry level jobs are available. Could you please clarify what DFIR entry level jobs are available?
I think that would be helpful. I am currently in an Associate's degree in Networking and Cybersecurity, and I am going to try and land a digital forensics internship while in school to get my foot in the door. 'Try' is definitely the key word, since two digital forensics courses (one in the AOJ dept and one in the Computer Networking department) are part of my program.
Yeah I dont think you really need to be a cop or lawyer to get started in it. Other organizations have digital forensics, pen testing teams, incident response, and general cyber/network security roles available. I dont think she did a great job of explaining it because as she said, she just fell into the career by accident and didn't actually try.
That's not true in what she said even it's been over three years. Technology has never been part of a police officer requirement or job description. Now given the fact that there are criminal evidence in the cyber domain, it requires a cybersecurity professional, digital forensics incident responder.
Pretty sure she was referring to being a forensic analyst in the police department. They'll want you to be a cop first, then a detective, then you can be a crime forensic analyst within the police department.

This is an inaccurate summary of what the speaker said.
very helpful

Go private, not public.
