Help me get to OSCP to land a good job

Hi everyone,

My name is Raafat Abualazm, and I am a passionate and dedicated Cybersecurity professional from Egypt with a strong desire to make a difference in the world of information security.

I am a proud graduate of the Information Technology Institute (ITI), a highly competitive scholarship program in Egypt that has honed my skills and deepened my commitment to this field. As a hardworking student, I have consistently strived for excellence and am eager to continue my professional development.

As many of you know, obtaining the Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP) certification from OffSec is a crucial step for anyone aspiring to excel in this field. Unfortunately, due to the severe economic challenges in Egypt, the cost of this certification has become unattainable for me. To put it into perspective, the price of the OSCP certification is equivalent to over three months' salary in a high-paying job here.

Currently, I am unemployed, and the shrinking Cybersecurity market in Egypt makes it even more difficult to find opportunities locally. Many reputable international companies require the OSCP certification as a minimum qualification, making it essential for me to achieve this milestone to open doors to a successful career.

I am reaching out to you, the generous and supportive community, to help me overcome this financial barrier. With your support, I aim to obtain the OSCP certification and secure a job that will allow me to contribute to the field of Cybersecurity meaningfully.

In return, I pledge to give back to the community by matching the amount raised once I secure a job because of this certification. Your contribution will not only change my life but also empower me to help others in similar situations in the future.

Thank you for considering my request and for any support you can provide. Together, we can make a significant impact and help me achieve my dream of becoming a certified Cybersecurity professional.

Sincerely,

Raafat Abualazm
