Answer:
Your experience can be very useful to understand all security controls directly related to IT, but there are many other security controls not directly related to IT, and furthermore, you need to know what is the risk management, the management review, the internal audit, etc.

So, you can follow these steps:

1.- Attend courses about information security. This course can help you “ISO 27001:2013 Foundations Course” : https://advisera.com/training/iso-27001-foundations-course/

2.- Obtain a certification related to ISO 27001, for example ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor

3.- Acquire experience working for another consultant expert in information security

Thanks for your valuable response. Since I dont have any experience, landing my first job will be a challenge. Any suggestion how to get experience as a new? May be after getting certified I will have a chance to get my first job? Thanks in advance.

The more certificates you have, and the more useful knowledge you have, the higher chances is that you'll find a job.

How to get experience - this heavily depends on the market where you work.
