Everyone keeps saying you need 2–3 years of experience to start in tech.
And honestly… the market is getting tougher.
Cybersecurity is more competitive than it was a few years ago.
More applicants.
More layoffs.
Higher expectations.
But here’s what most people miss.
Companies don’t actually want “years.”
They want proof you can solve problems.
Years is just a shortcut filter.
If you can manufacture proof through certs, real projects, and smart job strategy… you bypass the “experience” excuse.
The market is harder.
But it’s still predictable.
And predictable markets can be beaten.
Comment "YEARS" and I’ll DM you my guide on breaking into tech without years of experience.
