What talking with a friend who transitioned from marketing into cloud (AWS) and then into security, and he spends a lot of time studying to ensure he understands all the concepts required for technical discussions.

Curious to see what the community opinions are. Feel free to share your initial background as well.

Credentials, that’s mostly it. I don’t have the papers that say I dedicated my time to schooling.

People will say, “that’s becoming less important, it’s how you interview and what you know.” That’s true, but only to an extent, in certain fields, and primarily in America.
