Hello, I am a software engineer working in the VoIP space. I am looking to change my career path and get into Computer Forensics.
<snip> It's not a fantasy - I don't speak from direct experience, but I've watched a couple of people try and have varied success. First tip - try to be under 40 years of age. Many of the jobs in the U.S. are in the public sector, specifically LE, and getting hired after 40 as a LEO is difficult at best.
