How I Broke into Cybersecurity with No Experience | Application process, resume, and interviewing

I recently started my first cybersecurity job as a SOC Analyst and I wanted to share exactly how I got my job in case anyone else wants to repeat the steps that I took in my applying process. I hope you find these tips helpful if you're currently in the applying process or plan to start applying soon! I realized after publishing this video that I do have more things I can say about the application and interview process, so I'll definitely be making more videos on this topic in the future. Thanks for being here! -Jessica
