r/iam

Hi guys, I’m currently in my final year of university and I’m about to graduate with a degree in Computer Science at 22.

I’ll most likely be based in the Middle East or Europe after graduating, but my long-term goal is to eventually move abroad, ideally to the US or Canada.

I’m only just getting started with IAM, and from what I’ve heard, I apparently need CompTIA Security+, around two years of IT experience, and some solid projects before I can realistically get into IAM.

Is that actually true? What would you recommend I focus on first if I want to break into IAM as a new graduate?
