Weekly thread for any and all career, learning and general guidance questions. Thinking of taking a training or going for a cert? Wondering how to level up your career? Wondering what NOT to do? Got other questions? This is the time and place to ask!
General question but how do y’all actually find a mentor? I feel like there’s probably a local group nearby me or something that I could look into but are there places/people that are more likely to say “yes, I will mentor you” in y’all’s experience?
Tanya Janca (https://infosec.exchange/@SheHacksPurple) has a thread for mentoring on her Mastodon weekly (https://infosec.exchange/@SheHacksPurple/110690887324427507). There’s a ton of communities (https://shellsharks.com/getting-into-information-security#online-communities) to ask around too. What type of mentorship are you looking for?
