I landed a cybersecurity internship in just about 6 months of focused self-study, and I’m breaking down exactly how I did it.

After switching my major as a sophomore in college, my only goal was to build a strong foundation in cybersecurity… and I had to move fast. Effective networking, certs, labs; figuring out what actually works and what doesn’t when you’re starting from scratch.

In this video, I share my real process: how mentorship shaped my growth, how I studied effectively to pick up skills quickly, how I built credibility as a beginner, and what I did during my job search. I’m sharing plenty of lessons (and mistakes) that might save you time and give you some leverage.

If you’re chasing a cybersecurity internship, I hope this helps you map out your own path. Connect with me on LinkedIn, I love seeing the progress you guys are making. It motivates me to keep going too.

Thanks for all the support!

Much love,
Sean-Alexander
