what if I don't trust LinkedIn
Really enjoyed working on this collab, thanks for revamping my LinkedIn! 😁
it was a lot of fun!
I know both of you and a subscriber of both of you so I enjoyed this video a lot!
Hackerman to the rescue again!
Thanks so much for helping some of us who are aspiring and just got into the field. I graduate in December 2024 from Kornelius cyber security school. What’s my best option.

Exactly what I needed. This job hunt is like flying a plane. But youre blind folded and the plane is actually a rock.
implement the changes and see what happens 😎
🤣👾 I agree. I’m on that boat too. 🥴
Thank you for making all of this information available for us. Having followed your roadmaps, projects and tips has helped me land my first job as a SOC analyst. I'm starting next week and am looking forward to it !
PS. Please have a coffee on me !
so happy for you my friend, you made it happen!
I’ll definitely be having an extra coffee today 😆
How was the first week?

This was a great video unix. Would love to see more videos on improving ur resume, linkedin account, github etc.
More to come!
Gold content just like the usual. I would love it if you do resume reviews as well, happy to volunteer.
more to come
Really appreciate your content mate! Currently pivoting into cyber security after working nearly 10 years in call centre roles. I've completed both the Google cyber cert and Security+, still nervous and feeling like I know next to nothing!! I've spruced up my LinkedIn profile with your tips and am sending out applications every day. Pray for me!!
go after it! now that you finished google and sec+, the fun begins. Time to tackle harder/more practical certs
10 years in call centers???
thanks for the information
my pleasure
Thanks unix guy, i have many patches to be put in my profile, saved my time
Glad to hear that!
Sir because of you i have landed a job as network executive. I am fresher with no prior experience. But i was able to land that job. I am really grateful to you
super congrats my friend 🤝
how you did that buddy please can you give some tips!
@@travelingnomad8873 he watched the videos and followed the advice in the videos ….
@@UnixGuy could u please share the videos list?
@@travelingnomad8873 There is no list, you will need to spend your time watching the videos and taking notes….
My favourite cyber security plugs collabed amazing!!!!
🙏🏻
Great work! The tech market is rough you have both been making resources for people to get into the occupation.

Welcome aboard!

How can you have 10k views and only 90 comments ? Mental.
OK thanks man, I'm liking your material so far.
most people dont like to comment :)
I do appreciate your content ❤
🙏🏻
You have done a wonderful video on GrC. But could you do a video on other non technical fileds in cybersecurity
there are no other non-technical fields, they all fall under GRC
Really good content. it would help every one.
which one is better Pen tester Vs Malware analyst
Already did, it would help you to watch my videos:

First of all wanted to thank you for all the content you provide, currently trying to switch from a health career into cyber security and was wondering if the ccst cert is worth getting? Halfway through the modules but I'm wondering if I should study this information and save money for another cert or should I get this one since it's an "entry level"?
its an entry level cert, you should finish it quickly and move on to sometbing better/more practical/more advanced. My videos are full of cert recommendations so please watch them
@@UnixGuy awesome, thank you very much.
Hey, UnixGuy! Thanks for these tips here; they'll definitely come in handy. I am really considering a career in Cybersecurity and wanted to get your opinion on something!
I plan on getting either a CS, Cybersecurity, or IT degree at the college I want to attend. The CS & IT degrees both have security concentrations. CS is ABET accredited and the Cybersecurity program is NSA CAE-CD accredited. Overall, which of the three do you think would serve me the best? Thanks!
this will depend on the quality if the university, but if you want to work in cybersecurity then the degree should be in cyber security (no reason to do IT or compute science)
either way, you may still need to do certs with a focus on practical aspects:

@@UnixGuy Thanks so much for the fast reply! The school I am planning on attending is most definitely a high-quality college. Cybersecurity is what I wanted to do the most (it's by far the most interesting of the three to me).
I will focus on learning IT basics now while I'm in high school so I am prepared to break into security. Will also look into certs. Thanks for the playlist link, I will watch all of those videos!
Edit: Typo*
I just found your channel recently i wish i could have found your channel earlier 🙂 . Anyways after watching so many of your videos decided to take the Googles professional cybersecurity course grinding it daily to complete and looking forward for my career ❤ love from india
smash it 👏🏻
I have a question I am aspiring to become a penetration tester, for the experience section my only experience are the course that I have from TCM Academy which is the PEH and in the course we build a vulnerable Active Directory lab and it give us a few machines to practice should I add that in the experience section? Also if i have finished the learning paths from the try hack me should I also add that?
yes add everything to your CV/resume and follow this roadmap:
th-cam.com/video/8K7iAJ9BNl0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much 😊
I appreciate your kindness in the comments! please send me an email ‘info@unixguy.com’ , I would like to know more about your journey!
@@UnixGuy One thing I will never do (even to my own detriment) is pay empty compliments. I really believe that what you do is outstanding i.e. helping people.
@@claudiamanta1943 and that's why I want to know more about your journey and story :)
@@UnixGuy Will do 😊
@@UnixGuy Done.
What would you suggest for someone transitioning from electronics engineering.I have had previous roles in embedded systems and recently SCADA
follow this to build base cyber knowledge:
th-cam.com/video/rz0RL4Xue-A/w-d-xo.html
your embedded systems knowledge will come in handy
I am so glad i came across your page but i want to ask u a question i have a degree in IT from a country where cybersecurity isnt that big is it possible for me to get a soc entry level remote work ps i have no certification but am doing coursera and IBM soc analyst courses and the guided projects u said also the internships
yeah should be fine!
This video is great! I’m currently an InfoSec Analyst and worked as a SOC analyst the year prior. I transitioned into Cybersecurity from being a police officer. Should I include that in my experience on my resume & linkedIn? I figured this would be good to show my soft skills as well
Law enforcement experience is highly valued please keep it!
you can also try and pivot to a cyber role within the police force!
@@UnixGuy Thanks for the incite!
Thank you! Much needed video . Can you suggest where we can add professional certificates experience in LinkedIn ( especially for someone with career break or who has less or no experience to showcase)
there is a section called certifications where you can list then
you should also list them in the About section :)
@@UnixGuyyes listing in certificate section everyone does , but listing in about section stands out ! Thank you :)
@@UnixGuy sir can you talk about isc2 certification
@@ishwaryanarayan1010 I already did:
th-cam.com/video/NU9LNS3-rmo/w-d-xo.html
@@UnixGuy thanks for the link :). Somehow I missed it !
Hello i enjoy your video can u tell me if google cybersecurity certificate is enough to get a job without
security + because of financial constraints and how do you get remote roles from nigeria
no it’s not, please watch my videos I explain everything in detail…
Should I learn completely Python and Bash languages or just learn specific Scripting for Ethical hacking .
For Scripting we need to have expert in that language or we can specifically learn
I’ve answered your comment before and I gave you a roadmap to follow, please follow it as it is:
th-cam.com/video/8K7iAJ9BNl0/w-d-xo.html
Hi! Thank you for all the great videos. I am an international students studying Master of Cybersecurity in Australia. I saw a lot of jobs ads which requires PR / Citizenship for a cybersecurity roles. Do you have any advice for people who want to get in to the industry but do not have PR statues? Thank you! (I am in the first year of my Master and also finished Google IT Support and Cybersecurity Certification)
hey mate, sorry I dont know enough about immigration laws!
@@UnixGuy No worries. Thanks again!
Great content. Can you also pls make a video of improving LinkedIn profile for non-tech background people who want to step into Cyber Security field for entry level jobs. It would be a great help for me. Thanks 🤝🏼
hey mate, this video is for beginners with non-tech background, I said in the video what to do if u dont have experience, please watch it again properly
Is ceh v12 a good cert to get started in cyber security/cyber hacking
its not what I recommend no, watch this:
th-cam.com/video/8K7iAJ9BNl0/w-d-xo.html
So, for someone who has no experience and is a cybersecurity student like you mentioned. How would you go about the about section on LinkedIn? You mentioned in your video about putting in projects (does this include projects from certification courses), but what else do you put as a background?
do projects, I have a lot of videos that give you project examples to do, like this one:
th-cam.com/video/LFlsDm8w36A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-Pg2ryOvMgT2yDbH
@UnixGuy So on the about portion I would put ... "Aspiring Cybersecurity Analyst, who has perform varies of project from x to y" and list the main ideas and skills of the projects. Would that work?
@@NuetaX i showcased how to do it in the video I linked up, please watch it :)
@UnixGuy Alright, thank you for the help.
Can you make a video on why the cyber security certificate expires after 3 years and what to do after it should we choose a degree because it doesn't expire
it doesnt warrant a video, you dont need to renew them or u can renew the relevant ones
I hope there are hiring managers like you, because most of the hiring managers that i applied to just use AI to scan resumes and then reject you. Yesterday, i applied to a job that most of my skills matched, within 1min of applying, I got a rejection email 😂
this happens sometimes, dont get discouraged, I still get rejected as well. Play the numbers game and keep applying!
brother could you help me to get into a cybersecurity path where to start step by step to gain knowledge about cybersecurity where to get free lab to test and free resource

What if none of your previous work experience correlates to a tech position you're looking for besides maybe soft skills learned?
under experience have a role called ‘cyber security student’ and list every cert/project/skill there
also in the About section elaborate on what you learned
Sir wat is your opinion on Bsc in cyber security online degree in SNHU?
Im not familiar with that university
Subscribed ;)
welcome!
How to get a job as a fresher if i graduated 2,3 yrs ago...in interviews they ask what did u do all these yrs, why has there been a huge gap since u graduated, could u make a video regarding this
Start doing certs and projects to gain hands-on experience
Make up a story about what you did in the gap years (travel, or looking after parents, etc)
Hello , iam from india I'm following you since months . Iam studying btech how can i start my cyber security professional at google
best of luck
Hi Unix Guy. I am 20 yo living in india. I am in a constant dilemma of whether choosing CyberSec or Software Development for my carrear. People around me are constantly saying that Security pays low for a freshman, its lot more stressful than development, long hours than other tech jobs. What's your opinion on it? Btw, big fan of your work, Sir! ❤
I wouldn’t worry about the starting salary, salaries go uo as you gain more experience.
You can always go the security engineer route and do coding/automation there:

Hi unix guy, couldn't able to join the discord server.
how come? try from a different browser or try form your phone
@@UnixGuy i think you have removed/ banned me from the server. Just for asking some curious question 🙂
@@UnixGuy it's telling invite link got expired. Try using a different link.
Hi @@UnixGuy it is confirmed that my account has been blocked by the moderators just for asking a simple question. While accessing the server link it shows I'm not authorised to access the link.
It’s such a sad sign of the times that getting a job can depend on how good your LinkedIn page is. What if someone doesn’t want to be involved in social media? They’re practically thrown to the wind by HR people. Did anyone ever consider that maybe, as information security professionals, having our personal data visible to the world probably isn’t the smartest idea?
So that’s what you took away from the video? that you have to spend 3 x minutes of your life to create a linkedIn profile
Don’t do it, you don’t have to do anything
@@UnixGuy Of course, you’re right, I don’t have to do anything, but then, apparently, my family won’t eat if I don’t because it’s the only way to get a job now. Maybe I’m too old, but I miss the days when you could apply to a job, and your CV wouldn’t get eliminated by the AI filter because you were missing a few key phrases, or you wouldn’t be discarded because you don’t follow all the trendy professional social media sites. I’m not criticizing you. I think the information you provide in general is very valuable. I’m just sickened by the way the corporate world has changed. It’s not progress. It’s dehumanizing and unnecessary.
@@user.netizen11 I’m not trying to attack you personally, but everything you wrote sounds so gross. This corporate networking thing is seriously destroying the human spirit. I don’t know a single person who actually enjoys LinkedIn or the necessity to self-promote, but everyone is forced to do it because most HR people will literally discard your application if you don’t have one.
Modern world, adapt and evolve or be left behind
Hi I am a 19 year old just finished my A levels from Bangladesh. I am planning to go to either sydney or Melbourne in Australia for a bachelors degree in cybersecurity as an undergraduate and persue a career there as a cybersecurity analyst. Can you suggest me some good universities in Sydney and Melbourne for a bachelors degree in cybersecurity? Is it true that cybersecurity entry level jobs are hard to get and they pay less than most other tech field's entry level jobs?
it will depend on the visa requirements, sorry I dont know anything about visas!
@@UnixGuy can you suggest me some good universities in Sydney and melbourne for a bachelors degree in cybersecurity?
@@sayednihon6997 Monash in Melbourne, UNSW in sydney
@@UnixGuy is western sydney university good for a bachelors degree in cybersecurity?
@@sayednihon6997 below average
But have to be careful.. my Manager watching. Already mentioned my studying, hinting I'm not happy in my desktop role
studying is a good thing, frame it as ‘i want to expand my knowledge to be able to better serve my clients’ (as opposed to im looking to jump ship)
I also dont really tell my manager what Im learning 😆
My azure certs look good but the more blue team stuff i add... But it is what it is. Gotta keep moving the mind wheel.
@@ZeNex74 exacrly! blue team knowledge help! we all had to do that at some point :)
How is your pinned comment from 2 days ago but the video was just posted lol.
Magic 😜
It was probably unlisted or private before it was made public. The hacking mindset 😂
this is on completely different topic. My cryptocurrency got hacked substantial amount of money. I absolutely positively refused to believe that there's no one that can help me. I have over 600 screenshots with the narrative. If anyone reads this and knows anyone please let me know.
no idea
the "video of python projects" is non existent
It’s available
th-cam.com/video/shgKU-zjOmw/w-d-xo.html
Strongly disagree with putting the word Aspiring in anything. If you have been using the technologies, have security specific certs, constantly learning, and conducting yourself well in the community, then I think you can call yourself a cybersecurity professional. It would only hurt you unless you are just weeks/months into your journey IMO.
yeah I hear you, I do advise people to put ‘cyber security professional’ , some are just not comfortable doing that
to be honest I dont think one word will make or break a profile, people will still read the rest of the profile and figure out how much someone knows, doenst take long
@@UnixGuy fair enough, makes sense, appreciate the reply✌🏼
