Investing in renowned cybersecurity certifications can enhance your resume and even positively influence hiring decisions, but they are not mandatory to land a job.
In practice, what matters most is the applied technical knowledge. Having real experience in projects, having worked in the IT field, or completing quality training at a recognized company often carries more weight than merely collecting certificates. Certifications are a great complement, but they do not replace practical experience or the ability to solve real cybersecurity problems.
Before making a significant investment in certifications, focus on developing solid skills and seeking experiences that truly prepare you for the challenges of the market.
