Overcoming Interview Anxiety: My Journey to My Dream Cybersecurity Job

Today marks a significant milestone in my career journey—I’m just moments away from an interview with my dream company in the cybersecurity field. As I sit here, anticipation coursing through me, I can’t help but feel a whirlwind of emotions. Despite weeks of preparation, including countless hours of studying and honing my skills, the nerves are catching up with me.

The pressure weighs heavy; I’ve dedicated the last two weeks to diving deep into the material while balancing a demanding job. Now, with the clock ticking down to my interview, I find myself torn between excitement and anxiety. It’s a unique moment—one that could shape the trajectory of my professional life.

Unfortunately, I feel constrained in sharing my excitement with others around me, particularly on my usual social media channels. My current employer is aware of my Twitter handle, making it difficult to express my joy and nervousness. But now, while writing this, I can finally let my feelings out!

Thank you for allowing me this space to share my experience. It might not be a typical post, but I needed an outlet for my emotions as I embark on this journey.

Edit: Just received amazing news! I’ve made it through to the next round! The exhilaration is overwhelming, and I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude for all the positive vibes. I’m still buzzing from the excitement!
