Need career advice: 2025 grad with 1 yr IT support internship

Hello everyone,

​I’m currently unemployed and hoping to get some guidance from people already working in tech or computer engineering. I’m honestly feeling a bit lost on what my next move should be.

​For some background: I graduated in 2025 with a BSc Hons in Advanced Networking and Cyber Security. Right after, I got an internship doing daily IT support, which I just finished up after a year.

​Right now, my main focus is Linux. I have confident intermediate-level knowledge and I’m planning for preparing for RHCSA certification. My ultimate goal is to get into hardcore, top-level security roles in the future, so I’m trying to build a really solid ground-level grasp of systems and networking first.

​The issue is, I just don't know what path to take right now. Since I have a year of IT support experience and decent Linux proficiency, what kind of jobs should I be looking for that will actually help me grow toward that security goal? I’m confused about what specific roles I should be targeting to make that transition.

Problem is I want to go in future at security, right now what help me to get into a job that can significantly help in future at security.

Like day by day cloud is everywhere. RHCSA or Cloud Certification?

​Any advice on what to do next would be really appreciated!
