I am both CCIE and CISSP certified. Which you can say I have reasonable experience in both Networking and Cybersecurity world. My personal recommendation is to join a NOC/SOC as a L1 analyst. This help you start somewhere.

If you prefer tougher and steeper road, try SI (system integrator) companies. E.g. CTC, DD, NTT, Tech. M. You will have long working hours due to project deployment (my longest record was 36 hours straight without sleep). But those are the experience that's give you big bucks over the long run.

If you need more advise can drop me a DM.
