I completed this google cert, BUT I can not find that "Job Board", you mentioned at 10:28

Thank you Sandra

[@stevesantos4402]

Thanks you're so smart and cute

[@YBRL007]

Signed up ! On cousera and codecademy thanks Sandra. Certs to Turks 2024

[@pbenlightNlove]

I’m currently enrolled in the program. And it’s beginner friendly! The tech team at google really did a wonderful job putting it all together! As well as the break down on what things mean/what to know for a entry level security analyst etc 👍

[@thehawk5141]

I’m enrolled as well. I’m enjoying it and learning a lot.

[@eazymacc8953]

Any updates on how it worked out for you an were you able to land a job yet?

[@pbenlightNlove]

@@eazymacc8953 hey, quick update. I’m still doing the program. I just started on course 4. There’s 8 course to complete. 4 weeks in each course. It’s self paced. How quick or how long you can finish the 8 courses is solely on you. I seen somewhere, it stated 6-8 months is the average ppl have been completing the Google program for Cybersecurity. And towards the end it helps you also take the CompTIA Security + exam. But I’ll definitely update you once I land a job after all of this. So I’ll be back in the comment section few months from now lol 👍 also I pay $49 per month to do the program. First 7 days are free. Google lets you try it out before any payment is required. Hope this helps

Is it like video learning because I’m a visual learner and i wanted to know before hoping on it

I'm on module 4 of course 4 rn. I like it so far. It has been helpful. I hope to update yall on my career outcome.

Many thanks, Sandra! I started the course almost a month ago, and I am in the middle of Module 7 (Python). I have 20+ years of web app development experience, so lots of SQL, javascript (similar to Python), and some server/network knowledge. The course is fast-paced and the instructors are actually quite good - despite not being teachers. Having "normal" people as instructors makes you forget this was from Google. In each module, week 1, each instructor speaks about how they got into the industry (many by accident). I do think this course will help beginners become interested in cybersecurity. There are many resources provided, as well, such as external Python libraries, NIST frameworks, Splunk, and so much more. I had been studying for the CompTIA Sec+ (Professor Messor/mobile Sec+ app), but thought this structured course would help more. The extra 30% discount for the Sec+ exam is nice, too. Once I finish the course (likely tonight or this weekend), I will schedule a test Sec+ exam online, and go from there. I have a general question about learning SQL for cybersecurity. SQL injections are a common OWASP top 10 vulnerability. Wouldn't it be better to use MongoDb, CouchDb, or other NoSQL databases instead (in terms of security)? Are there other major vulnerabilities for NoSQL dbs (no mention in Google course)? Or, in your day-to-day work, do you find that close to 100% of applications use SQL as their back-end dbs?

[@TheGrunztiger]

As far as i remember correctly, we used "prepared statements" to negate SQL Injections. (Some IT-Security lecture on university...)

[@abeuber123]

Great video and thanks for the help, however you are speaking way too fast, screen shots go away way too fast and information delivery is kinda of blurry. For a newbie like myself i had to pause and go back WAY too much. Thanks

Just finished a bootcamp with SpringBoard, got my Security+ and am now currently going through this google certificate.

[@NK-iw6rq]

@@stormrange I am not sure to be honest, but their support team did a good job at answering all my questions before I signed up for the the program. I would come up with any questions and then email them. And of course I am here to answer any other questions you may have that I do have an answer for.

[@Tina-wx5hq]

So is it good to do this course and study and take the security plus certification from Comptia ?!?

[@madeshwaran7806]

Have you finished the all 8 courses and landed on a job ?

[@etukudoetukudo2795]

Google cyber security professional certificate Learning is good, but however, it doesn't dive into hands-on experience. One still need to get hands on experience elsewhere through internship

[@merolin5975]

Amazing! Thanks Sandra

[@WithSandra]

So glad this was helpful! Thanks for watching 😄

[@andriysydorenko5699]

I was curious, based on your expirience will it be enough to have Comptia A+, Network+, Google Cybersecurity and Security+ sertificate for an intro position like SOC Analyst? I can understand that qualified specialist is always better, but in the same time 4 to 6+ certificate for the fraction of a chance to get an entry level job, all the while we can read that Cybersec proffesionals overworked since the pandemic, and there is a need for more people?? While entry level jobs are not so "entry" is not a new concept, but an unfortuned reality, I guess my deeper question - is it possible to win an interview with a self-study knowlege in the linux or python or any other "need to know", while having the trifecta + Google Cyber certificate, so we could start actually earning some money before any advencments with other certificats??

[@senseiSinclair]

It would be useful for CompTia Security + but its not so sure about the others based on my going through it so far.

[@noyafootage]

I have the A+ and N+ still no luck with finding a job. I earned my Google cybersecurity cert today. I am confident this will increase my chances. wish me luck 🍀

Did you even took the course to make such comment about if it’s worth it? I’m looking for a review from someone that really took the course and not someone that just read the contents of the course 😢

[@bagery]

Josh Madakor took it and compared it to his own program and CompTIA.

[@trishjones7316]

You basically just repeated everything the program tells you on the website you are sponsored so of course ur only going to touch on all the bells and whistles, I’ve done the research and it’s not cut and dry like you present it…. Entry level positions in this field is not making the salary they posted, not discouraging anyone just saying do your due diligence….

would you say its better to do a certificate course through a university ? that way you can have your best chances at lading a job?

Thank you for the fast crunch I was on a time crunch and actually needed that info asap. I'm a master's in computer & info sci redirecting into cyber and your now the second yt channel to recommend G's cyber cert. I think with it yielding a discount and also taking time to walk you through concepts, it's pretty much a no brainer to pair with the S+(preceding ofc).
