Landed a cyber security analyst job in 8 months. Huge shout out to Cuong Nguyen, Kushantha Gunavardhana , Sohail Ershadi for helping and mentoring me on this journey. I joined the CyberXcel Applied Cybersecurity Analyst program to build more hands-on SOC skills alongside my work in IT support and security operations, and it's been a worthwhile investment. The program focuses on practical application rather than theory alone. The labs and scenario-based exercises helped me get more comfortable with alert triage, log analysis, and structured incident response. They also connected well with the certification study and home-lab work I'd already been doing. The trainers were approachable and gave useful feedback, and the content felt relevant to current industry practice in Australia. It does ask for consistent effort, especially when you're working full-time, but that effort pays off. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to move into or strengthen their skills in a security analyst role. — Vipul
