Career advice needed for a 5 YoE OSCP certified pentester
Hi everyone, I have been following this great sub for some time and have seen the great community helping each other. I want help.
I am a 5 years 9 month years of experience person, OSCP done in 2021. I started career straight out of college with a internship in an IT company which used to do a lot of cybersec stuff including trainings, red team/blue team activities, VAPT, physical security audits, helping them get ISO 27k, phishing awareness campaigns along with RnD where the company was developing a SIEM based on ELK stack backend. I was part of it all as the team was really small with 6 people of whom the real work was done by only 4 and rest 2 were leaders getting top level stuff done. I worked there for 2 years and some months.
Covid hit, I prepared and cleared OSCP in 2021. Then shifted jobs got 100 percent hike (starting salary was avg in terms of package in my country). Now part of a MNC worked on threat modeling and VAPT. It was fine for a 1.5 years as the products I was handling had complex architecture with containers, microservices along with cloud infra.
Now I am bored here, nothing challenges me here, I tried to shift jobs but the market was in bad shape in my country, and I had some location restrictions due to family health problems so I was supporting them.
I have experience in docker, kubernetes, aws, azure, kvms, threat modeling and vapt (containers, linux, windows, webapps). Kindly help please what should I do and any certifications you suggest for career progression.
I am also simultaneously enrolled in exec MBA (6 months back, I would get a degree of full MBA and not exec MBA) program of 2 years from a tier 1 college in my country, so can this also help in getting into leadership roles in future like maybe a CISO/CTO.
Please help.
