-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hum I had the same issue a year ago. I just had gotten laid off and decided to peruse my dream job of security. I had tons of non professional experience but nothing to show and employer. I went out and got my TICSA and took the LCA also. I then searched around for entry level positions in the security field. I even put a post on the security jobs mailing. I was completely honest. I was like green security professional looking for entry to intermediate position and blah, blah. I got many leads from the list. I suggest during your off time while looking to get in work on some certs and read up on what you can.
If you want a quick way in go get the CISSP. That dam cert though definitely worthy of its praise is starting to become like a instant passport into the security industry, or at least in my neck of the woods it is. - -----Original Message----- From: Jay Woody [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2003 12:30 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Getting In Ask again on a different day guys.

I am currently a security enthusiast and employed as a software developer for a large Telco company however I would like to get into the security field but I am finding it a very tight market to get into. How would be the best way to make a start in the Security field. As I have found that most company's will not look at your CV unless you have had 2 years proffesional experience/certification and you can't get a certification until you have the experience etc. Thanks in advance Mike - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ----- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------ - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ----- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------ - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ----- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBPzk7oHAnVb+gRdsVEQIHxgCePH6xXgxNPRjPKrwNKEZX2lhamREAoOff hCyS7FsRMepLBOL1fxCufR3Z =qUyy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
