Depending on the industry, try looking at professional organizations or non-profits where you can volunteer to gain some experience. You can also look at LinkedIn or inside your own network to see if you can find a mentor or other connections in the industry you're pursuing.

Cybersecurity is a high demand area! Industry certifications are a great way to break into industry, but more often we hear from employers they need skills beyond the technical skills the field requires. Many employers are looking for a mix of the technical skills and durable (soft) skills so finding opportunities to showcase a combination of both is a great way to break into and stay in industry
