good advice
This was a very informative video
Thanks so much for sharing. You and I think the same on this. You have to lay out what you are trying to do first and not just run after certs. I work as a network admin but I was already doing the job before I got my first cert. Been a while but I really want to work remotely in a cloud or cybersecurity role. SOC analyst rolles seem to be increasing but im more focused on learning some practical skills first and maybe a badge or something like that to ad to LinkedIn. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos.
People on social media r just caping but this dude is God sent and i hope he answered everyone's questions
I seriously love this comment. Thanks for your support!
This was the most realistic down to earth feedback for cyber pros., I've been a CISSP for a quite a while and after you break that initial 100k barrier, it's not even about the cert anymore. It's about the value and perception you bring with that years of xp.
Do you have an email address I could contact you?
Thanks for the perspective Nick. Much appreciated.
No problem!
Great Content & Thank you, Nick!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Nicolas! As someone who also wants to stay aware of trends, read blogs, and attend conferences, can you make this same video but for those things you recommend keeping an eye on to stay savvy of this fast-moving industry?
Hey Nicholas, can you make a video on becoming a cybersecurity engineer from absolute scratch? I have a bachelor's degree in computer applications and am looking forward to pursuing cybersecurity as my future career. I've heard people commend they have got their Security+ and all but I don't actually know what that is. I mean, a video that explains everything to become a cybersecurity engineer would be a big help.
Hey man! Here is a link to a video I created in response to your question.

When you have 10+ years you dont need the certs. If you dont and your looking for a new gig in this economy, might want the certs.
Certs can help you get an interview. They don’t help you land the job… The value you bring to the company is what lands you the job.
@@NicolasMoy Agreed, I've been in security for over 5 years as a admin, analyst, and consultant for the last two years on the risk and compliance side. Your giving good information and it will help people but from my perspective the last 4 years has been an economic roller coaster. In the last 2 years there have been many layoffs, RTO mandates, and changes in the ranks within the fortune 500. I think if you have 10+ years of experience as a candidate hiring managers probably do not need to see the certs but to validate the awareness and add a bit more credability to the cv without knowing a hiring manager in the current economy the certs will help. I was looking at a video you released a few years ago about your security engineer position partnering with cloud architects. Thats the direction I'm working my way towards, good to cross paths with your content.
I spent 12+ years working in security without any certs. This year, thought what the heck. Might as well get some displayed in my LinkedIn and resume. I’m not really looking for a new job, but it’s good for recruiter filtering process for future.
@@NicolasMoycan't get the job if they never interview you.
Hi, I'm really grateful for your videos. Can you please make a video on the "Road map to becoming a Certified Cloud Security Engineer". I have 7 years of experience in the general IT field. I don't yet have any Cyber security Certifications.
Hello Mr. Moy,
I have been trying to schedule a call to get started in the CPU program, but there are no calls available for the year 2024. Is there anyway I can reach out to you and schedule a call sooner? I am serious about changing my career and getting started in your program. Thank you!

this is definitely the most genuine answer for anyone trying to find the best cert...The best cert would be the one which aligns with your specialized node of cyber security or any other domain. The first thing should be to ask yourself that am i really willing to do this cert??? or iam just being manipulated by social engineering.
Best regards from Dominican Republic.
You are awesome!
De lo mío!!
how often do certs need to be renew? and how is it done?
Can you make a video for remote job for cyber security? How anyone can start from entry-level?
Yes! I've got one in the making that is going like next Tuesday!
I was thinking about going to Georgia tech.. or Gwinnett tech to get certified.. they also have an A.A degree
Hello , I have no experience in IT or computer science. But I know basic using. How can I get in cybersecurity and peruse my career??? I want to improve my life n career in cybersecurity in 2years. Please ❤
8:25 Pokemon fan here, thanks for the reference lol. I'm literally collecting certs and badges like Pokemon :)
I'm a Pokemon fan too! Thanks for watching!
@@NicolasMoy this is awesome!!!
I guess this applies to anything not DoD related. Because HR want a sacrificial lamb and the certs are the sacrifice. You need the certs to meet IAT level qualification . You want a job? Get the certs to pass 8750 baseline:
DoD 8570 has been superseded by DoD 8140 which takes a much heavier emphasis on performance and ability to demonstrate skills. It's a lot more nuanced than simply passing an exam. The industry is shifting.
@@NicolasMoyNonetheless, I still needed the cert(s) for the DoD job(s)…even with 30 years of knowledge and experience. Good discussion, though. Thanks!
Hey Nicolas. For a graduate student of cybersecurity and information assurance, with no experience, what would help to get entry level job in cybersecurity GRC domain?
Learning GRC 😉
In all seriousness, your credentials on paper can only go so far. You need to develop skills and gain knowledge in specific areas that companies are hiring for.
Please produce more videos , your are very clarifying
Thank you! I definitely will
Hey Nicolas, what is your opinion on remote work? Do you have a video on it? I've been applying to several remote positions but no call back
Also, do you videos giving resume tips? Thank you, sir. :)
You may have to start your career by working onsites at employers. The market is oversaturated with people working remotely. I would look to work onsite and remotely
@@dougbones7095 been working on site for 1 year in Cybersecurity and worked 3 years as IT Support. I’m seeing several positions to work remote with some of them entry level. But yeah, you’re right, there’s always over 100 applicants most of the time in less than 2 hours.
I just dropped a video on this. Check it out here:

@@NicolasMoy perfect, will do as soon as I get a break. 👍🏼
for a college graduate student who has Ejpt, pnpt, oscp and can't even land a junior penetration tester position , what's wrong with him ? what should he do ?
Can the student demonstrate skill sets and value to a potential employer? The credentials are meaningless otherwise.
@@NicolasMoy how to do that ? isn't his skills should be obvious already from passing those " technical " certs and obtaining a bachelor degree in comp sci ? or should he go hack the company so they can agree that he has skills ? lmao
@@maxclere built a portfolio, you can find videos on this. Employers want to see if you can actually do something practical not just passing a test.
@@VicMansaMusa can you share a portfolio as an example ? you mean projects like a tool scripting or a demonstrated attack maybe hack the box ?
@@maxclere I am an electrical engineer, I work closely with our IT team to keep our infrastructure secure. hacktgebox, tryhackme, tutorialdojo, whizlabs can help you sharpen your skills. I am thinking of a career change by the way, that's why I am here🙈🙈
nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Actually, do you need certifications to work on DoD. It's a regulatory requirement.
This is like saying Facebook requires certifications. The DoD isn't everyone. Open your mind!
Man, just go straight to what is needed. No need spending 10min talking gibberish just to link us to your private website 😂

I completely disagree with you. If you read the required qualifications for any job announcement, you'll find that they are asking for incredible certifications like CISSP, CISM, CISA, CGRC, and so on
These are rarely listed by a hiring manager. Many times they filler components added by a recruiter. I worked as a hiring manager for nearly a decade. This is how it goes...
Nicholas is painfully slow and hard to watch.
Can't please everyone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
💯
Thanks for watching!
