Junior Network Administrator Path?

Hello Networking Community,

I currently am a college senior in information systems graduating in December and am looking to get into a jr. networking admin role or something of that nature. Currently I work as a Software Developer Intern and have been for the past two years, but I want to switch into a Networking role which will get my foot into the door for Cyber Security; preferably as a IT Security Specialist, Incident Responder or a Cyber Security Consultant. My plan till graduation is to learn basic linux, get a certificate in Coursera's Google IT Support Specialist and get my CCNA. Would this be enough to get me into a role as a Junior Network Administrator? I'm trying to get these certs to boost my knowledge on networking and put it on my resume, especially since I am not coming from a support background. I live in the Tri-State if that helps. Do you think this plan is a good one or is there a different route you guys would take? Thanks.
