So I’ve made a big decision and started looking towards a career change. I have always been interested in everything computers and have had a few years work experience with them, although my current job isn’t.
I looked into doing this over a year ago but chickened out. Now I’ve came back to it again and ready to give 110%.
My hope is to finally become a pen tester and I have enrolled in a few courses to get me on my way. A+, Network+,Security+,CEH.
Like I said I have looked in to this career path for over a year and I think I would really enjoy it and actually be happy at work (unheard of these days
)
So what I’m asking is;
Are there any pen testers out there who can give some friendly advise, pointers on any other courses to look into, a day in the life sort of stories? Where to start/where you started job wise etc?
I know this is not a fast starter and could take a while. I have a 18 month plan for my courses alone.
Many thanks in advance!
