Exciting News: Landed My First Internship!

I’m thrilled to share that I have officially secured my first internship contract! A massive shoutout to the incredibly supportive members of the r/cybersecurity community who offered their invaluable advice during my journey.

In just about three weeks, I’ll be starting my summer break and will proceed to sign the NDA and internship contract. This opportunity involves collaborating on a web application project alongside another intern focused on quality assurance.

The internship is set to span three months, and if I demonstrate strong skills, there’s a chance I could be offered a part-time position with competitive pay thereafter.

I truly appreciate everyone who took the time to respond to my initial post—I couldn’t have done it without your encouragement and support. A heartfelt thank you to all! šŸ’–

Update: I’m overwhelmed by the congratulatory messages and kind words I’ve received since sharing this milestone. The awards and acknowledgment mean a lot to me! Thank you all! šŸ’–


Feel free to follow along as I document my internship experience!
