Freshman students, don't be too impatient! Listening to the old uncle's words, you will avoid a lot of detours. [9 years of safety experience sharing]

Hello everyone, this is Li Zhikuan.

Recently, many readers have asked me on if I learn 161014dd1c0a2c network security if I want to apply for training courses. Given that there are too many repetitive questions, I will simply write an article to talk about it.

First of all, I want to declare that this article is not an advertisement for the training courses. There will be no training courses in this article, and it will even make the training courses unhappy.

The training course is generally after a period of time (months) of concentrated learning, which may be online or offline, through a series of courses, to cultivate employment skills in a certain field of network security.

Do you want to report training , this question, there is no standard answer, the score situation is discussed.

School student

For freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, my suggestion is not to report.

I have seen many students at school, especially those who have just entered the freshman year, asking me if I want to enroll in the training class. I think these students are too anxious.

The first few years of university are a critical period for laying the foundation. I suggest that we should work hard to lay the foundation, so that it can support the in-depth study or employment in the future. Otherwise, if there is no basic technology, we will build a high platform on the floating sand.

So what is basics , which are general courses in the computer field, such as computer systems, computer composition principles, computer networks, operating systems, data structures and algorithms, databases, and so on.

It can be said that no matter which field of computer you are engaged in in the future, these basic general courses are very necessary to learn. These belong to the inner strength method, which determines how far .

Generally speaking, it is difficult to talk about these basic knowledge in a short-term intensive study in a training class. At most, it is shallow-level. The training course focuses on " technique ", teaching you how to use tools, how to get the server, how to raise rights, how to hang up and so on.

The basic knowledge mentioned above belongs to " Dao ", Dao produces one, one life two, two produces three, and three produces all things. If you are only satisfied with being a "script kid" without knowing anything about the technical principles behind it, how can the security road go in the long run?

Therefore, for the students in school, there is plenty of study time and no direct pressure for employment is in front of them. At this time, they should work hard to lay the foundation. Now is an era with abundant learning resources. There is everything you want to learn on the Internet. The environment for self-study is much better than when we were ten years ago. Through self-study, cultivate your own learning ability. After all, this profession is to live and learn, and there will always be new knowledge and new technologies to learn. Self-study ability is as important as knowledge and skills.

On the contrary, if you rely on indoctrination learning in the training class from the beginning, it will hurt your ability to learn new knowledge.

seedlings, you should have learned it in elementary school, right?

Fresh graduates & have worked

For students who are about to graduate and are looking for a job, or who have already worked and want to switch to the cyber security industry, if they don’t have a technical foundation, they want to find a cyber security-related job, or have some foundation, but feel that Friends who are still very good, my suggestion can be reported.

For students at this stage, they are already directly under pressure to find a job. It is too late to lay the foundations and find a job. You can choose a reliable training class to make a surprise in a short period of time. First learn a skill to solve the employment problem, and then spend time to learn, and it is too late to lay a solid foundation.

As for the choice of training institutions, I would not recommend it in order to avoid advertising. Everyone remember to find the better-known ones, the ones with longer time, and the ones with reputation. It's best to shop around, compare their course settings, and compare the teacher's class style. Do your homework before you start. After all, the current training courses are not cheap, and it takes a few months to get in at once. It's better to be cautious. Of course, if you are a big boss and don't need money, it's another matter.

Is it a good job for those who come out of the training class?

Many students may have some concerns: Are they good for employment after the training class?

I always feel that it’s not too embarrassing to come out of the training course. In fact, I don’t think there is much to it. As long as I can learn the skills and knowledge, what does it have to do with whether it comes out of the training course? Every year so many college entrance examinations are admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University, they also attend extracurricular tutoring classes, and no one is embarrassed to talk about it.

it good to get a job?

The first thing to be clear is that IT vocational training institutions have not only emerged in recent years. They have existed for many years and have cultivated many talents for the society. Therefore, it is normal for the industry to learn technology through training courses. If the students in the training class are not able to find jobs, then there will not be so many new training institutions emerging every year (Of course I mean the students who learn well, and those who learn poorly are not good candidates for the training class or not) .

When hiring people, the company’s HR depends more on whether the applicant’s vocational skills match and whether there is a bonus for work experience, which has nothing to do with whether it is a training course.

Especially in the field of cyber security, there are not many universities in China that have opened this major. Many people and even many industry leaders have entered this field through cross-professional and cross-industry self-study. Therefore, companies in this industry are more accepting of training courses than others. The front-end and back-end development positions are higher.

small companies, even in the 161014dd1c0c48 big factory , Qiming, NSFOCUS and other security vendors, many training class students join every year, so the training class students must have confidence.

Summarize

Finally, let me summarize my views.

For non-graduates, especially classmates (I refer to classes in a broad sense, including computer science and technology, software engineering, network engineering, communication engineering, electronic information engineering, etc.), my suggestion is not to report for training in a hurry Class, but to exercise their own learning ability, to lay the foundation .

For students who are about to graduate and are looking for a job or who are already working and want to enter the field of cyber security, you can try to choose a reliable training class. Someone will take you to study together, which can improve your learning efficiency and avoid some detours.

I hope this article will help you a little bit if you choose a training course. If you have any questions, you can leave a message in the comment area. If it is not convenient to make it public, you can also add my personal WeChat in the background to communicate privately.
