Honestly, if you're interested in cyber, computer science, IT, or any of that shit, join the military, full-stop.
Computer Science and all related fields are dead in the civilian world. They've been murdered by AI and H1Bs and off-shoring.

The only ways to still get hired in those fields is AI or having a security clearances. Rajeet is not allowed to get a security clearance because you gotta be a US citizen.
If you join, you'll have a stesteady paycheck and a security clearance.

Agreed

Does having a security clearance really mean anything? Don't a lot of people get them? I remember reading someone on xitter saying that had one but thats just because they were a recruiter or something and thus had access to peoples SSN

>Does having a security clearance really mean anything?
Yes, many civilian jobs need them. It costs the company thousands of dollars to give you one (if you don’t already have it), and foreigners can’t hold them because you have to be a USA citizen. So companies can’t hire H1Bs or contract out a call center in India or any of that bs.
>Don't a lot of people get them?
I think everyone in the military now at least gets some kind of security clearance. Outside of that, no, most people don’t have one and never will. People only get them because their job requires one.
However, companies are stingy. It’s cheaper for them to hire people that already have one.
Like recently-seperated vets.

Also, tech is experiencing massive layoffs right now. The CS industry was bad two years ago and is somehow worse now. So if you’re ultimate goal is to work for Google or some shit, there’s no reason not to join the Space Force or whatever for 4-6 years, finish your bachelors/certs while in, and see if the market is any better when your ETS date approaches.

Or do what this Redditor did and work at Target for 2-3 years making minimum wage.

Or do whatever you want. I don’t give a shit. I just find it crazy that I still hear zoomie retards tell me that they’re about to start freshman year at Expensive University studying CS while fags like Altman and Musk literally go on TV and call zoomies retards for doing that and vowing to never hire them.

How are the Cyber Officer roles in the military, /meg/?

Comp. Sci. guy here who's not too found of industry. Been eye-balling federal work (military or agency) for a few months now.

Military-adjacent jobs that don't actually involve joining the military? Trump administration set this up recently. Can set the shipbuilding problems and ammo supply in the right direction without encountering a Navy Chief Petty Officer Lawshawnda during your duty day.

Well, imagine doing this right after finishing a four year military contract. You’d be set for life. Thanks, Robert.

>>65445638
Reminder that the guy dishing out this advice doordashes and lives off of welfare, having never held a fulltime job despite being in his mid-late 30's.
>>
>>65445638
if for some reason you really want one of those jobs (which all suck btw) you're better off doing so after an enlistment. you'll be better trained than apprentice school grads and have access to VA benefits

>sailors living in horrible conditions isn't whats making them want to kill themselves
Is this what the psyop is? It's not the conditions. It's people joining then trying to make the military look bad.
>>
>>65446177
The hyperobsession with people in the Navy killing themselves presents the illusion that it is a daily occurrence. Kind of weird for a non-server to pretend to give a fuck about this issue especially when they actually root for the deaths of their own countrymen
>>
>>65445734
>the military is the best job ever!
Which is why enlistment and retention only see bumps when the economy is bad and the suicide rate is abnormally high both during and after service.

How many have gotten killed/wounded so far and iran still hasn't folded?

What does getting fired in the military look like? I thought it was just getting UCMJ'd but all of the Delta talks talk about guys getting fired.
>>
>>65445638
mike rowe is so full of boomer shit, these jobs are NOT paying 300 grand, not even 100 grand if youre new, more like 50-60k, and all the back breaking labor that comes with it

How many Iranians have been killed? Guarantee you don't know that number off the top of your head because I know exactly where you get your disinfo and it is an echo chamber. But go ahead and keep bitching, we already know your obsession with "defeating /meg/" drove you crazy a long time ago

>>65446183
Crazy how your time in the military didn't make you suicidal, even though that BCD you earned a decade ago drove you insane

Nothing good. Don't let it happen to you. Someone else can answer longer term, but seriously, SERVE YOUR FULL TERM UNLESS YOU ACTUALLY CANNOT DO SO, in which case you'll get a medical discharge or something.

Seen this happen with E9s who get caught up in dumb bullshit, their position title gets pulled and they end up in some random spot where everyone else is told not to speak to them. Then they retire quietly.
