do we just need a website, or do we need a WordPress website? only curious cause it seems a lot of people focus on WordPress for their website builder. maybe cause its easy... but would a custom made site impress or detract? Hope you have a great day & Safe Travels!

Some great tips. I especially like the bit about HomeLabs - they're a great way to take control of your own destiny. Some IT people don't want to touch technology outside of their job and I understand the desire to leave work at work; but it also means their experience is entirely dependent on what their employer chooses to give them. If they are given menial tasks or their employer is the type to keep riding obsolete tech into the ground they end up stuck without marketable skills. A HomeLab doesn’t just give you skills and experience - it demonstrates passion and initiative.

Every company is different. Keep in mind that you may or may not need a cert for a job. Some companies may ask for experience, a degree, a cert or something else. One key thing that will help you stand out is using the power of LinkedIn and network the hell out of people. Networking plays a big part in getting a job to bypass the ats system.

[@dfw_sleepypillz1007]

As an industry pro in IT - I found this helpful on a high level. I am not a "job hopper" - I have long tenures at the companies i have worked at. The hurdle I am encountering now is that all of the positions (in my area of North Texas at least) in my preferred pay scale are contract positions, and most not even contract-to-hire. I need a place to retire from at this point - I remember DOS and dip-switches, that's when I got my A+ lol. The resume info was exactly what I needed to see - I haven't changed my format since the mid-90's (Word was still WordPerfect when I created the original). Seeing what the recruiters and HR are looking for and getting some insight into their headspace hit the nail on the head. Thanks Chuck - rock on sir.

[@realeduardoguzman]

A tip: If you are already a programmer / software engineer. You can create a static site (use your preferred front-end technology and compile it to html, css, js) and host it in S3 (or GCP equivalent). It will be much cheaper than hosting a wordpress server, specially if you don't make an update every week.

[@fumanchu4785]

S3, GCP, Wordpress...? You don't need any of this shit for a stupid static website.

[@johndaarteest]

One of the tricks I have heard is to open a separate document and type keywords that you want to stand out, type these over and over again and then copy and paste these into the header and the footer of your resume multiple times, but use a white font color and shrink it down to the smallest font size for your word document application. That way the computer reads it but human eyes can't.

[@kylemeek4726]

I had a classmate that did this years ago. I would recommend against it, but do as you want. If the questions come up regarding those specific technologies, you better prepared to speak on those technologies.

[@lamiles3892]

Definitely trying this!!!!

[@joshsmith4998]

Honestly, being introverted in a market full of extroverts makes it so much harder because we have our own great story to tell, but aren't always the best at explaining especially in an interview process where you're often put on the spot and expected to perform to the same level as perhaps other extroverted people. I think that's where having a homelab or some quantifiable example that can demonstrate you have the chops to perform given the right environment is really helpful. Or having a couple of good professional references that can vouch for the things you've done.

[@comic-typ5919]

Well said

You pointed it out right. I can relate to this situation. Extroverts relate very well to people while introverts are very related to tasks. In my experience is that i see more work being accomplished by introverts compared to extroverts in general. Not always but many times it does.

I've been watching similar videos back to back from sometime and I gotta say yours is true gold. Not only do you advise on projects but how to do them. Not just go a build a website but how to do it. Not just some resume tips but exactly how to make one. Thanks a lot for making this.

[@michaelamos75]

Thank you for proving what I have been telling my wife for months. I had to take a 5 years break from IT and I have been rebuilding my homelab. I told my wife the Dell T330 server, Dell T5810 workstation, pfsense box, cisco and unifi switches were all for building my online portfolio. Also thank you for the resume help, I have 20 years of experience so I have a hard time getting my resume down to a page or two. Like most people in tech I would work at 1 place like IBM for 7 years. Sure I started as a repair tech and left as head engineer, but during that time I technically had like 30 job titles and working for 3 different companies. I wasn't just a engineer, I wrote software, managed 40 people, taught training classes, did technical writing, etc. I also get confused about how to list who I worked for. Like I had a IT job running 2 datacenters for a major drug company, but I worked for a company that worked for HP that did the IT for the company. At the same time company I directly worked for would loan me out to other companies for a migration project or datacenter inventory, etc.

[@michaelamos75]

Also, how important are certs? In the last 20 years I have never had do any prove myself to a company. I met so many people at IBM in Memphis that I was always headhunted or my reputation spoke for itself. I moved to the Tampa area and no one knows me and I only ever got my A+ back in the time when the tests were on DOS and Windows 3.1. I was working on my MSCE but work got in the way. While I love my current job, my skills are going to waste because the higher ups don't think my skills translate.

You know what I think the best advice is to give people? Carve your own lane and do whatever it takes to get a job. I have researched this topic so many times all throughout the internet and there is so many conflicting reports, and so many different things people have done or tell others not to do. Just do whatever it takes, control your own destiny as cliché that may sound. Basically try anything if you can do so, you don't really know what path will lead you to success. There is no right or wrong answer.

Even more important than bragging is honesty and represent yourself as you will be at the job, No one will have a good time at their job if during the job interview you come overdressed and later come in casual. Same goes for the attitude and other ways everyone represents them selves be your self grab a coffee or tea, Relax enjoy and don't haste cause that always comes back to bite you later on. And ofc the extra's we all can see/learn here will be able to give a boost to represent as more likely hireable.

There's a MAJOR issue though, speaking to "Entry" level Cyber Sec roles. Go on Linkedin and look for basic to intermediate positions for something info sec related. The issue? In 30 minutes, some companies have 40+ applicants. 3 - 12 hours later? Talk about hundreds of applicants. You can go ahead and tailor your resume and take the time to do so but you'll be the 66th applicant and you have done nothing but waste time. I love everything about this video but this is a huge problem.

[@frog6054]

Is there a solution to this other than praying you're lucky enough

One "solution" to this is to prepare multiple different resumes in advance for multiple different positions, to cover all your bases. If something opens up, you'll be prepared ahead of time and you can send it in right away.

Funny Enough, It was my first resume that I made. I have 2 resume in all. The first actual resume was done by a friend who never got accepted for intership at any company. He is currently a 3rd year uni student with no work experiences. Somehow a company which controls most imports and exports of IT stuff actually contacted me for an interview. I did make 1 mistake in the interview. I explained everything in dis-order. The thing they said is that based on everything I said and about the Interview and Resume, I like to learn new things and try to nimble in everything and is very curious and I answered, Yes. I love IT. They said alright, If in all interviews, yours is one of the best, You will be called to sign the papers. Gave the General Manager and IT manager good firm handshakes. Not stronger than theirs (just to not show dominance; someone told me to do that and that person is a Network Engineer for a Big firm). So Yeah, Hope I get accepted.

I implore that you do so because in all of my time jumping from mediocre coding bootcamps, enterprise valued certifications, and learning programs that teach all there is to know about IT, Linux is just so fascinating to delve into, and while Tech Support, System and Network Admin and Cyber Security are all very popular and sought out job positions, I feel like not many going into Unix systems as much as you do.

Great advice in here.

This is straight up SAUCE man. thank you so much for making this video! I'm going from a field tech position and trying to get a network admin position or something similar.

Been applying at so many companies . Had some couple of interviews with no offers. This cycle continues and the next few months are gonna be sheet

Sounds stupid but as a Security Professional never thought you really needed a website. Can see how it could be helpful as long as its updated with current projects. If its not better to stick to keeping it on your resume. Always make sure you can talk about what's on you're resume or you'll never make it past the technical interviews.

Thank you Sir. You change my mind about resume. Thank you for the advice. I go to Per Scholas-apprenticeship in NJ. Love the website domain & home labs. I had a mock interview with UBS. I put in home labs -they loved it.

I have $12 into my domain for the whole year, email, hosting and all, I am no developer and it sure was not fast, not unlimited bandwidth either, but i dont need that just to play around.

Thank you for putting so much effort to prepare people for IT jobs and giving heads up on path forward. Really appreciated your work!

[@Larimuss]

The best people for any IT are definitely the passionate nerds who love IT, i feel like i cloud takel anything. It's hard to communicate that and sound genuinely, though. 😢

Your last piece of advice really helps me a lot!!!! Thank you for existing >

While I don’t agree with the 8 second approach as that ultimately makes those reading, rather not professional, I do think having your information organized properly is a must.8 seconds to read begs a counter to that approach. I seriously doubt they absorbed anything they read.

[@Jburnz]

Thank you so much for this video. I am applying for my first job in IT, and the information you give in this video is extremely helpful and practical. This video has helped me to have an edge of confidence, like it came from a sports coach. Thanks Network Chuck. Ill be hanging around. Wish us luck too heh 🙏

Just one thing man I LOVE YOU NETWORK CHUCK

I believe there's a better way than this, but you need to know how to code in HTML, CSS , Javascript. Wordpress isn't difficult at all, it's only about copy and paste PHP code, then you can deploy your website in Vercel or Netlify for free.

This is excellent, thank you! Much more robust than most career tip videos.

[@AyeHarold]

I actually didn't noticed consciously that it was a 40-min. vlog. Another great content once again!

[@DavidStenbeck]

Love your videos... but that opening paragraph is the equivalent of Listing all your skills... there are so many superlatives in it that it is hard to read and shows that the person would rather over embellish than use clear communication. My tip.. drop 9/10 of them so that the few ones that you use actually mean something

[@thegreenengineer7994]

this is only applicable for US companies.. in germany this is completle differnet ( i am currently hiring 17 positions). - everything must be on your resume and especially the CV nothing extra, only likedIn will be checked everything else might be nice further down the road but for the first steps no one will check this in germany

[@majin2909]

Idk if this video will be helpful, just another topic covered to make a sponsorship to hostinger, not sure if it's sure a quality content over the promotion
