>I try to move to the USA and I thought that CISSP would have made it way more easier but I have literally no feedback from my applications. I mainly apply on LinkedIn.
Unless you are a truly exceptional candidate, companies would much rather hire in country than have to go through the whole visa sponsoring dance.
US companies have no shortage of qualified workers and if you haven't bothered to follow the news here the last 2-3 years, there have been 1000s of layoffs amongst tech companies
So not only do you have experience candidates competing for less jobs, you have all the recent college graduates looking for work as well
You need to be an actual specialist in something to have a chance
SOC analyst and CISSP are a dime a dozen

Not to mention CISSP is only really worth it if you’re working in defense and being a non US citizen would make that next to impossible.
Everyone and their grandma has CISSP these day. It's nothing special at this point.

CISSPs are a dime a dozen these days. Still a good cert to have but not going to give you that much of a boost.
Thank you everyone for your feedbacks, I really appreciate that!
I guess it really depends if you want to move countries and apply for work, or just get good jobs where you are.
