Is a bachelors degree in computer science truly requires?
https://www.reddit.com/r/Pentesting/comments/10mrmgf/is_a_bachelors_degree_in_computer_science_truly/

<!-- SC_OFF -->I have a bachelors degree in psychology and a private investigation license. I have become interested in pentesting by way of the PI work and begun studying the Security+ materials. I’m wondering if my resume would simply be skipped over without a CompSci degree or even a boot camp. Would passing the test be sufficient to demonstrate knowledge? <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/everydayneurosis (https://www.reddit.com/user/everydayneurosis)

What to learn after CTFs
https://www.reddit.com/r/Pentesting/comments/10mt5w9/what_to_learn_after_ctfs/

<!-- SC_OFF -->So for context, I've been working on CTFs for a while to learn hacking in the hopes of eventually getting into penetration testing professionally. Managed to get OSCP recently and a few other easier certifications that felt pretty similar to CTFs. However, several posts on this subreddit and other related subs have noted that CTFs are not a good way to learn past starting out, and I feel like I'm getting diminishing returns at this point as far as employability and relevant knowledge gained. I'd love to learn some new information so that I can feel confident moving into a real pentesting role, and more importantly be skilled enough to get hired in the first place, but I don't really know where to learn. I'm trying to read a decent amount of pentesting books and working on getting into bug bounties in my free time, starting out in IT helpdesk as a job, but I feel a bit directionless from here. Any good recommendations for what to work at and learn instead of just grinding CTFs all day? What would you call a good next step for someone trying to get into the field? <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/one-moofin (https://www.reddit.com/user/one-moofin)
