What do you guys think about a projects section on a resume instead of a skills section for someone early in their career? The idea would be instead of just listing Python & Nessus you could list something like "Used Python to start a scan against a target system with Nessus API".

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking Jr sys admin or something more networking focused but would prefer to just go straight to something in security. With a wide net how do I know what skills to prioritize?

Hello, I currently work on the help desk with a year of experience. I also have Security+, Network+, and a bachelors in finance. I am trying to get my foot in the door with Cyber Security and I’m willing to move just about anywhere. Currently working through shellsharks's 10 step playbook but I also saw his Vulnerability Management Bootcamp. Are VM roles a good area for me to target? I think it's interesting and doable, but I'm contemplating whether I should first secure a more advanced IT position as a stepping stone. Thanks!
