How do I network with myself to obtain an entry level position in Cybersecurity?

I'm interested in perusing a career in cybersecurity, and I plan to get the appropriate certifications soon (e.g CompTIA Security+, CEH, etc) but as I was researching I kept seeing the common pattern of "a friend of a friend got me access to this position", I don't interact with people outside of my family and really tight friend group. I want to try working for an international company one day, how do I connect with others?

How can I find connections, resources, and experiences to become a biopharmaceutical scientist in research and development?

I have been working to find a career that I truly enjoy and recently I have been increasingly interested in pursuing a career as a biopharmaceutical research and development scientist (with an interdisciplinary background in nanotechnology), but I understand that I will need to gain experience in this field to really comprehend what I will be working with. So I need help finding connections within academic institutions and professionals in this field that will help me experience my potential future career. Any type of help is appreciated! I wish to connect with professionals and learn as much as I can, working hard to gain the experience I need for this career. (Is it possible as a teenager?)

What is the most effective way to network with people?

I am currently struggling with being more social since I am more of an introverted person. However, I am challenging myself to be more open to other people and try to be nicer because sometimes I can come off as angry or pessimistic which is what I am not trying to do with people. #social-networking #networking

How helpful is your school’s alumni network in finding a job after graduation?

I can take the proper courses to prepare myself for the job I want. I can get experience. But how do I get set on the proper path? Will the school help me find a good job? Are schools’ alumni more open to hiring recent graduates of their alma mater? #social-networking #networking #business-networking #buildingrelationships

What are some of the best ways to network as a student?

I am attempting to make my presence known, I guess, outside of my university and connect with different groups that I think perhaps I would like to work for. What are some of the best ways to do this? Are there specific events that would be better for me as an environmental science major? Is networking outside of your preferred field okay? Thank you! #networking #social-networking #environmental-science

How do you start networking?

Hi, I have a few questions regarding how to go about networking. From what I understand the practice of networking is about discussing career opportunities with people who are involved in the fields that interest you or just to help you get your foot in the door for finding a job. How do you find these kinds of conversations exactly? Does it happen naturally, over time, with the social connections that you develop or do you need to go out of your way to find certain people that can help you out in the career department? Are there certain groups, classes or events that I can attend specifically for networking? So, am I correct in what I think networking is all about? If so, what is your advice on how I go about networking? Appreciate any feedback you can give me. #networking #career-advice #social-networking #connections #finding-a-career #general-career-questions

I interviewed for a position that I really want and am wondering how I should prepare if I don't get the position? Should I consider volunteering for this organization? Social media was brought up by one of the women that interviewed me, should I look for additional oppurtunities by following them on LinkedIn? #jobs #interviews #social-networking #job-application

How do employer's really see an applicant with a disability?

I have a tracheotomy and although I am familiar with the laws pertaining to those who are disabled, do employers actually consider hiring you if you are disabled in the back of their minds? I have been out of work for a while due to my issue, but finally have the situation under control. I speak very well, but I do have to take breaks in sentences to get air sometimes. #recruiting #social-networking #homeland-security #employment-law

How do you use a Homeland Security degree in searching for a career?

I am actually still in school for about three more weeks and I am finishing my thesis on Cybercrime. My experience is in Sociology and the Legal field. I am self-motivated and a hard-worker who learns pretty fast. I am anxious to get a career, but I am 41 years old and have been out of work for a few years. I have a tracheotomy, but it does not hold me back from a normal life. I love to be outside and to help people and just need to get my foot in the door to a company that will utilize my Master's degree and the skills I gained in litigation. I am really excited about my future. I would love to get a PhD. by studying either sex trafficking or women and terrorism. #government #federal-government #women #social-networking #homeland-security #human-rights #cyber-crime #counter-terrorism
