EVE-NG - How To Build Cyber Security and Networking Labs

I know the feeling. You get hired into a position that's a little bit out of your league. and every day feels like a panic.

You can feel the acid churning in your stomach. You can feel your mouth getting dry, palms getting sweaty and heart starting to race. It's called imposter syndrome and I've been there.

I still remember the first day I was hired on as a Senior Penetration Tester at a large consulting firm in the Washington D. C area. I was the lead but I basically got the job on a few YouTube videos, inside connections and a killer resume.

Yeah, I had some experience but not the kind required for the role - and man I seriously felt like one day my boss, my colleagues, my wife - everyone would find out I was a poser. I honestly had no idea what I was doing so everyday was acting day. Well guess what.
