    Currently have CyberSecurity degree. I’m finding it difficult to get a job in the field without relevant experience of having a job in the field. How can I get experience to get the job that requires experience?

          Think smaller? Company-wise that is.

            I’ll give it a go! Another issue I’m facing is that I alredy make more money than what I think smaller companies would offer. I would love to change my career because I’m so tired of this track.

              Well maybe theres other ways you can make up the difference. Smaller companies might be in lower cost of living areas. even if working from home it can be nice to live near work. I’m not too sure how all this remote work stuff has changed hiring though.
