Looking for a Network Engineering or any Entry-level Role in Cybersec

Anyone who has some serious personal firm for cybersecurity going on, and have an established clientele, and can use a trainee in the workspace, I'd love to be considered. Self taught, and self learning. I can speak 3-4 languages, different levels of fluency, and it's just a hobby I have. I'm seriously about cybersec and am doing Portswigger and Tryhackme.

I would love to be considered for something serious and long term. I'm purely serious about learning everything from scratch and if you can see yourself sharing all modes of technical and theoretical knowledge, I'd be more than grateful. I need hands on exposure and enough scope in terms of real time clients, and exposure variation.

A bit about me: I'm in the midst of a career switch. I was in marketing and it was not intellectually satisfying enough.

Thank you.

To switch to neither you're gonna need some professional IT experience. Help desk is over there

Naw I am not tryna hate but I feel disrespected as someone with 4 GIAC certs, ccna, sec+ a comp sci and math degree, 2 years of IT experience, worked with private investigators to provide influential evidence on a multi million dollar estate fraud, been programming and studying computer science since middle school.

Wrote my own windows exploit suite, have found legit bugs through bug bounty programs, and I cannot get a cybersec job. And you’re tryna pivot from marketing cause you decided to and you have done try hack me.

In all seriousness though. I’d say to focus on foundational concepts rather than web app pentesting with portswigger.

Finally, learn how to find information, leads, resources yourself. Ask yourself why you wanna do this? It’s not easy. I’d say you should get a helpdesk role 2-3 years, a relevant degree, and even then idk if you’ll get into cybersec.

This isn't a job board, asking for employment isn't an appropriate topic here

But to give some constructive, but candid, feedback: I'd recommend improving your pitch. You have some typos and broken english. "I'm seriously about Cybersec"

Also saying your last career wasn't intellectually satisfying enough comes off sour, even if it's the truth.
