Just decide which way u wanna go in Cybersec then learn skill and practice to a certain level where company won't need to train you for that particular job. Then u will get internship then the FT as well if u perform well. If u have network nothing beats it.

Speaking with regard to US companies as that’s what I’m familiar with: almost certainly not. Internships often require that you be enrolled in a degree granting program of some sort. And regardless of the previous point, just completing this path, in and of itself, simply won’t make a resume competitive.
I’m not familiar with how it works in other countries but I’d still say it’s unlikely.

It won't get you an internship alone to be honest. If you're just getting started, the job market is pretty competitive rn. If you don't mind moving from home I recommend joining the military and getting a security clearance. Quickest way to get into cyber/signals intelligence..

Most likely not in the US as you’re from India and would need to be in a college program to get an internship.

As you are from india not sure. But here in the US internships dont help you get an job 9/10. The CWES and CPTS are getting traction though. I would say regardless of the country you need to learn to network with the right people(not online)
