I see people grinding certifications and still stuck without interviews 😤. I used to think more certs meant more job offers 📚➡️💼. What most people don’t realize is certs are just table stakes, not leverage ⚠️. HR uses certs to filter, not to hire 🧠. The real decision happens when a human asks “Can this person do the job?” 🤔. That’s where most cert-only candidates fall apart 💥. I’ve watched people with fewer certs get hired faster because their strategy was right 🎯. Certs matter, but only when they’re paired with proof and positioning 🔗. If you’re stacking certs without a plan, you’re burning time ⏳. I put together a simple framework that fixes this fast 🚀. Comment "CERTS" and I’ll DM you my Cert Strategy Cheat Sheet.

Hey everyone, I’m Camron. I’m a veteran with about 8 years of experience across IT and security, and I currently work as an IT Specialist while transitioning more fully into cybersecurity. My background includes security operations, access management, system hardening, and incident response support in enterprise environments. I’m finishing a Master’s in Cybersecurity Technology along with a Digital Forensics and Cyber Investigation certificate at UMGC. I currently hold Security+, CCNA, Splunk Core User, and AZ-900 certifications. Right now, I’m focused on growing from analyst-style work into more engineering-focused roles, with a long-term interest in IAM and identity security. I joined this group to learn, share experiences, and connect with others building meaningful careers in tech.

Hi, I'm computer science graduate here to grow and learn, Thanks for having me... I'll be in your care!
