How to become an ethical hacker and find a role as one

Hey there.

I'm a software engineering student. I'm currently learning C# from university and some databases and the .net framework so I can become a backend developer from this framework. The reason I chose this stack is because the job offers in the country I live in are most of them from this stack. Even though I enjoy this my dream job is to become an ethical hacker or work in cyber security.

Someone told me once there's no such entry level role as a "junior ethical hacker " so that I should better start with something like junior network engineer or IT specialist or Helpdesk and keep getting experience and then apply for a cyber security job.

I want to hear some suggestions from those who are experienced in the field about what should I learn now. Because sometimes I feel I should be learning maybe OS or python or Linux or networking instead of backend in .NET.

Suggestions to not be an average .NET developer

Hey everybody. I'm just getting started in C# and so far I've just learned the basics from university and currently learning functions. I would like to know if some experienced developers in here can give suggestions to become a .NET developer and master C#?

My main goal is to land a junior level job as a .NET developer.
