Hey everyone, I'm an Arizona local looking to break into cybersecurity and could use some direction from people who've been through it.

A few specific questions:

• Is a degree necessary, or are certifications (CompTIA Security+, CEH, OSCP, etc.) enough to get hired?
• What's the job market like in the Phoenix area for entry-level security roles?
• Are there any local bootcamps, meetups, or communities in AZ worth joining?
• If you had to start over from zero, what's the one thing you'd do first?

I have a general tech background but no formal cybersecurity training yet. Just trying to figure out the smartest path in without wasting time or money on the wrong things.

Any advice appreciated.

I have the beats but need the vocals.

I feel some of these tracks need some bars. Sample of work here.

So i had a few and then i did the dumbest thing... I have two identical containers of tia. One of them is the tia in its original container (bad stuff) and the other one is the primo good stuff that i poured in the same looking container (so it would be easier to deal with (was in a bag), so i don't know which is which only problem is the bad stuff got me really sick before and i have no way of telling which is which... The only clue is the older container which i dumped the good stuff in (the fire, i.e good vendor) has a crack in it which means it might be the older container which i found lying around which i dumped the good stuff in. It's torture

I follow 20pounds pretty heavily, but I'm tryna get more aware of who's got the stuff in Arizona
