I'm about to graduate with an IT degree. My problem is that that field is so broad so I don't know what type of entry job I should apply for or anything. Ultimately I'd like to do Cyber security. Any tips or suggestions?

Apply to everything because landing a job ain't as easy as people pretend it is
. I'm probably 50 applications deep within the past week and doubt I'll hear back on any of them.
I've been slowly studying for the solutions architect associate. Gonna take it in a couple weeks.
How has studying for that gone? Are you familiar with Cloud Computing and REST APIs prior to studying for this?
Also where are you finding the info breh?

any app builders in the thread?
I have a retail client who wants to essentially create an app where the customer comes in and gives the employee their name and then the employee deducts their balance.
This is a successful retail location with over 4 million in sales, but this app is only expected to see about 10-15 transactions a day so nothing extremely heavy.
The business owner just likes getting the upfront money from the customers, and I have ran extremely successful campaigns online that's resulted in 4k plus in a week in upfront payments by including trinkets or a 5% discount...
How hard would something like this be to someone who never created an app? How long would it take? I have the next 5 months to work on this...

Do not do this yourself especially if the app will deal with banking or credit card information

Is it best to knock out certifications even though you don't have much experience? I take the A+ in 3 weeks.
I was planning on studying this summer for the Network+ and taking it in July. Then I was going to try and study for the Security+ and take it in the fall.
Or should I get the A+ and then try to get work experience and take the Network+ later this year or early next year?
Right now I'm in school and I only have 2 semesters left. My current job is paying for my school so I can't leave for another job at the moment.

Been studying for my sec+ the past couple of weeks. Why does this shyt seem easier than the A+ brehs?
Because the A+ is all over the place and the Security + is more focused. That said Security + will look better if you're trying to to move into Info Sec.
