Which part of it-security do you want to become a part of? It's a huge field with loads of roles and specialities. For entry level, a soc is probably the easiest. Pentesting is the most popular, but also not a jr. Role in my eyes.

Definitely pentesting, but looking at this job market, I can't even land a helpdesk role. At this point anything..but I'd prefer remote, as there's nothing near me.
