Review the NICE Workforce Framework. Are there certain areas that you would want to focus your career on? Explain which areas would appeal the most to you and which would appeal the least.
While looking at the NICE Workforce Framework, I have been able to narrow down certain areas that I would want to focus my career on. First, what really stuck out to me was, ‘Investigate’. I have always been interested in crime investigation and anything related to it. I grew up watching crime shows and took a course in high school that revolved around that. Therefore, combining my major with one of my interests seems to be something that I believe will work out perfectly. Furthermore, one of the most important things in regards to my career to me is that I enjoy the everyday work. Another area that I would want to focus my career on is ‘Operate and Maintain’. Being the person that maintains the security within a company/business would make me feel good in a way. I believe that doing this type of work would allow me to build great relationships with the people I am working with. While looking at the NICE Workforce Framework, the one that doesn’t appeal as much to me is ‘Analyze’. This area of cyber security work seems like a lot of research work and that isn’t one of my strong points. It isn’t as ‘hands on’ work as I would like it to be.
