I have hospitality, customer service and even low level management experience but im not getting any offers on my applications
Should I get some cyber security certs? which ones should I focus on if yes?

Funny of you to ask OP, I remember my struggles of landing my first WFH job. Btw, WFH stands for Work from Home because not many people come across that term usually. But, if you must ask, our company is headquartered in Nashville. My base pay is 95k per year along with a COL stipend and generous health and pension benefits. As we speak, I am clocked into my position in the beautiful hot springs in British Columbia. We do have an RTO policy, but I haven't been to the office in 4 years! Ha-Ha! You COULDN'T pay me to work in the office. Yesterday I had fun fucking a uni student that transferred from china for the school years, so yeah life is great so far. Today she is making me her traditional Chinese dinner as a thank you for fucking her so nicely. Maybe next month I'll fly out to Holland and do my job for the month. But like I said OP, keep your chin up and don't be disuaded by the multiple rejection emails in your future until you get that golden offer. Take it and run with it. Anyways .... Chiao!

thanks for the response anon
Did you use indeed or pay for a website that specializes in WFH jobs like flexjobs etc? I'm wondering if indeed is just all scams at this point and if it might be worth it to pay a job finding website to filter the garbage

Demoralizers are right. Your best bet is to make a YouTube channel going over the Epstein files. That shit is huge now. Everyone here should be doing 4chan schizo shit on social media because everything we’ve been talking about, banker greed, Epstein abuse, conspiracy, ww3 apocalypse is now becoming mainstream. Most of you saw this coming. Time to capitalize on it

No, because literally every retard like you has decided that cybersecurity is a comfy do-nothing job and EVERYONE has flooded the industry. There were not enough cyber security jobs 10 years ago, there sure aren't enough today now that it has been meme'd as retard daycare.

Honestly data analytics is an easy WFH career path. Just learn SQL and either PBI, Tableau, or Qlik depending on what company you want to work for. Maybe some python would be good too, but I got a job a few years ago basically only knowing SQL and making a follow along tutorial Tableau dashboard.

Thank you anon. Sounds like a plan, I am currently learning Python, is SQL hard to learn?
So basically I should look for jobs as Data Analyst, can I try to apply even without any experience in the field? I have been working as a development engineer since 7 years and looking to change careers into 100% WFH.

SQL is definitely easier than python. If you’re not a complete retard it shouldn’t take too long to become proficient. And yeah you can apply without any experience, data analyst is usually an entry level role. Just find some datasets online and make some dashboards that look nice and say you know SQL, that was enough for me to get a job. It’s not a bad career path because you can transition into data engineering pretty easily from data analyst and data engineers can make a lot of money at the right companies.

Why are you people still keeping the belief that wfh jobs are attainable alive? Its a complete scam, especially now.
>>62085904
>>62085875
This is right
>t. Fell for the cyber security meme because I thought I would be able to wfh
3 years later and I never got a job in the field let alone a wfh one. I fell for the scam. Don't do what I did.

I lucked into one of those roles and it sucked (apart from having ok pay and being WFH)
I'm sure people can succeed in that role but it's one of those roles where there's an autistic degree of variance in terms of responsibility and buy-in from the rest of the org, to most orgs it's just a cost center that gets in the way of productivity

I got laid off from my last job in March 2025. I was WFH, thanks to covid we all went WFH. 9 years at the company and genuinely the top guy. I was team lead, I did the training, I wrote the manuals, I had the highest numbers. I worked in fraud prevention for ecomm. I went to meetings with the big dogs while my manager who knew less about our programs stayed with the rest of the team. I loved my bosses. They loved me. I got laid off after training 10 Filipinos. So did the rest of our NA Fraud team and our manager. Replaced by the Flips. I job hunted with good references and great resume. I only got 2 interviews in 6 months, finally landed a shitty call center job. Had to take it because I needed work.
No one is hiring WFH unless you're something special or have certs others cant easily get. Why pay you 20+/hr when they can hire a flip for 2.50/hr. You can do more work? Okay, I can hire 4 flips and its still less than hiring you. If not flips, indians.

I'm going back to school for cyber security. What certs do you recommend? I have a security clearance which I hope gets me an entry level job at least

I was in my job for 8 years then Covid hit and we all just went home permanently. There was a 2 year period where we weren’t sure if we were going to come back to the office or not, but finally they said we were permanently remote.

I took an internship straight out of college (2018) which turned into a software dev job. Am senior dev now. We went fully remote during covid and have been ever since

yup I agree. my boss' hands were tied, he is still there, the flips are dogshit and theyve had to hire even more to try and cover all the work the American team was doing. They have a flip manager too. Not a single American on the entire ecomm fraud team. Bossman says its only a matter of time until the entire company is flips. I don't have anything against the flips, some of them were really cool. And it's not like they caused me to get laid off. Its the greedy Indian CEO who caused it. And Id much rather hear a Pilipino accent than an Indian accent if I ever had to call in to speak to customer service.

this and other anons are right. Stop focusing on getting hired and focus on making content designed to piss off glowies. That’s a market that is actually growing. AI content especially. Just look at all the popular YouTube channels. You either need to make ai slop or Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, Jimmy Dore, Theo Von, Dave Smith type stuff. Anti-Israel content like greyzone, etc
Most people here are thinking working for the man is the answer but the right answer is destroying what the man has built

I’ve gotten like 5 or 6 wfh jobs between 2022-2026 just by lying on my resume. Getting offers is definitely harder than it was back then but not impossible. I think if anything I’m overqualified, hence why I’ve had so many interviews but not many offers recently, so I just took off one job and slightly extended the timeline on another one.

Mine came naturally after years of working in the tech field. If you study Azure a.k.a Entra, Exchange Admin, Sharepoint Admin, InTune, ETC, you'll move from the nerd who tells retards how to reboot their computers to endpoint management or some kind of administrator. Most of those jobs can be done from anywhere. You just get a company laptop, connect to a VPN.

I do WFH cybersecurity for a bank but I have massive experience and credentials and have literally worked with (not at) the NSA and I was still out of work almost 2 years.
I mean it's good if you can get a job. It would help a lot if you're black or a woman and I'm not kidding.

Correct. It is a gay fake job suitable for DEI hires.
You need to do hard-core real work as a white man. Cyber is now where companies stick their women and blacks.

WFH "chads" are either larping or blind to how disposable they are seen
I highly suggest you stay out of jobs with that gimmick because HR salivates at the idea at eliminating any person who gets paid decently with some offshore alien. And to make matters worse theyll cut your hours and underhire intentionally so theres a mountain of shit to do while you fufill their harsh metrics.
The lack of commute is nice dont get me wrong(and I can especially imagine that if you live in a shithole like NYC or Cali) but it isnt worth just how unsecure your job is and also how utterly demanding it gets.
T. Worked 2 WFH jobs. The common theme between the two of them is that there was always a tremendous assload of work whenever I started shift and work itself was so aggressive I never wanted to do OT. I quit the second one in particular because during lull months for the company they cut my hours. When I started doing inperson work shit got a lot less stupid and I was ok working OT again.

I think youre missing the point by asking that. It IS nice but not nice enough to put up with the rest of the garbage that comes with WFH. They are not jobs youre gonna go 20+ years with and retire on nor have that wonderous "dude I only do 4 hours of work a day in my pajamas and get paid for 12!" For long if at all. They are 100% either looking to get rid of your ass or practically turn you into a seasonal worker.

I *AM* the offshore alien. Work for an american Fortune 500 company. Full WFH and paid double the national average here in East Europe.
I remember being worried when Trump first became president that he will eliminate these jobs LOL

This. Cybersec is a scam / DEI busywork that goes to (usually military) lunchtime rowdies in DC and Virginia, or foids. I got security+, cysa, pentest, network+, CEH etc, and a meme bachelors degree in cybersec back in 2022 and still haven’t gotten a job. Got about one offer since then, and it was a shit position for like $50k in the deep south. It’s also gatekept like hell. Even the reddit tier lefty white male hiring managers won’t hire you
Meanwhile you see foids and nogs on youtube, tiktok and linkedin bragging about their cushy $80k - $100k+ do-nothing cyber jobs and they have like one preliminary cert

this only applies if you're in a low skill or white collar factory worker job (i.e., codetranny.) i work in a niche financial reporting role at a megacorp. fully remote and promoted several times to manager level roles despite the rest of my team being hybrid in another state. i'm not saying i'm indispensable or that no one could possibly do my job. i'm just saying that i have enough "high stakes" responsibility that i am immune to threats of RTO or offshoring.

>I can’t compete with minorities and women
Sounds like a you problem because I get offered jobs just because I’m white male and they hire mostly women so now I’m the DEI hire
Some of you guys just need better social skills and to lose some weight
