Career In Tech: How To Find The Right Role For You

[@_omorewo]

I like that you put less emphasis on the pay and more emphasis on what resonates with each person... Thanks!

[@WellActualllyyy]

you broke these down so clearly. would love to hear about other non technical tech jobs like “product manager, technical writer, business analyst,” etc

[@salishseas]

My daughter is at the University of Washington. The Design program is almost impossible to get into. So she is hoping to get into tech through the back door doing an Art major. Art nowadays isn’t just painting and sculpting. Art is now involved in every part of tech. So it’s helpful and reassuring to know she can make a transition into tech with an art degree. It won’t be easy. But it is possible.

[@gypsy_soul22]

As someone who is 31 and about to switch careers, I'm feeling more at ease after watching this. Thank you!

[@StereotypeBreakers]

so glad to hear that! I'm also 31 and life is just starting - I'm also shifting in my career right now and planning to change careers at least another 3-4 times in my professional life. We can do this together! 🙌

[@salishseas]

@@StereotypeBreakers Hi! Your videos are the best I’ve seen on the subject. My 19 yo daughter is just starting out in life. She’s a University student now. Her mind isn’t wired for the rigorous CSE classes, but she is great at writing and art. She is hoping to do an Art major and get into tech through the back door. You mentioned in a comment here that you don’t code. Without giving any identifying information may I ask what you do in tech now? How did you learn the tech skills without a CSE degree? Thank you!

I know it's 2 years later, but I found this video in my search for which career to choose. I had been torn between Backend Development and Data Analytics because I enjoy SQL and Python and you need both for either of those options. I took the quiz in the description and...Data Analytics is the best fit for me!! I will take this as confirmation and get to work! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@DejiAdebayo.]

I am here too after the search, so I am going to the quiz right away and see which is good for me. Goodluck to me

[@charlesberkeley6429]

Wishing you good luck, E. Lenah Wilson

[@ashleygesty7671]

Data analytics in healthcare is definitely booming! Thanks for the informative video 😀

[@StereotypeBreakers]

Yes it is intended! It's the future of healthcare in my opinion

[@OliviaNanfe]

What steps do you recommend in taking to go this route? This is literally what i want to do! I’m trying to transition from pharmaceuticals to health IT!

[@ashleygesty7671]

@@OliviaNanfe I would consider learning SQL and a data visualization tool such as Power BI, Tableau and/or Qlik since you already have a clinical background. I have a KZbin channel and podcast (Health Analytic Insights) where I go in more depth with how to transition into health informatics/health IT, good luck!

I cannot thank you enough for this video. Just turned 30 and decided to challenge myself by going into tech. Didn’t know where to start. Now I do! Thanks

same here! 30 years old switching to tech. we can do this!

[@ITSecurityLabs]

Great video. i agree, you need to spend a lot of time playing around with tech till you find something that works for you.. We will be honored to have you as a guest on our channel

[@StereotypeBreakers]

I'm glad you agree! I don't code professionally so I don't know if I'd be a good for your channel but thank you for thinking of me though

[@rickyhall6687]

Best easy-to-understand explanation of the different aspects of the IT field.

[@Neroumaru]

Can we get a video about working as an employee vs as an entrepreneur in tech? That would be interesting, 'cause I think most of the tech degrees prepare people to be a 'decent employee', and if you think about it, it is way more complicated to start your own business in tech than in the trades. However, the market needs more blooming enterprises.

[@StereotypeBreakers]

that's a good suggestion, thank you!

[@spokenwithprerna]

thank u so much mam for providing that much information...

[@gyan-talks]

Very well articulated.

[@JosueMartinez-wd3yu]

Coming from music teacher into tech, I’m looking forward to checkout what I might be interested in.

[@calebadam8301]

How's it been?

[@salishseas]

I second that question above. How is your transition into tech going?

[@JosueMartinez-wd3yu]

@@calebadam8301 it’s been SUPER slow progress and it’s because of the other priorities I’m having. Nonetheless, I really think that a person could land a job between 6 months to a year. Like I said, for me it’s the other things that I have that are taking so much time. So hopefully I can get something by the upcoming summer 2023. The great things is that I have my teaching certificate if it doesn’t work. Will. Hope y’all doing well

[@salishseas]

@@JosueMartinez-wd3yu good luck and thank you for the reply.

[@Amine-xl5ut]

Thank you blonde .. Currently, I am interested in learning databases and desktop programming..

[@StereotypeBreakers]

It's great that you know what you're interested in!

[@aDm219]

Should I take career in tech like if my English spelling not so good but like reading chatting related to computers is good?

[@user-xf7mu7ub9d]

In tech you need to know at least the basics of English. But the more you'll learn about tech, the more your English will improve and you'll learn new words.

[@nsemekejohnny7892]

Data analytics is my preference

UX / UI skills are very important..but I don't know how to program the interface after designing it. :'( :-P

[@StereotypeBreakers]

That's what you'd need front-end development skills for 😉

[@DevsLikeUs]

great overview, thank you.

[@StereotypeBreakers]

I'm glad it was helpful!

[@antikertech157]

How about learning all three of full-stack development, data analytics, and UX/UI? I have previous programming experience, love art by making charcoal portraits, and love designing better experiences for my customers. Besides, I have always been curious about going online, giving webinars and that sort of thing. Btw, I got plenty of time.

[@StereotypeBreakers]

Sure, it's possible to learn all three but in terms of developing your career and getting jobs, it might be more strategical to focus on one direction at a time ☺️

[@ShwetaSingh-gf7dh]

Hey , I have 5 years of experience in HR, after 6 years of gap I want to restart my career . I want my career now in technology related . How do I change my career path and where to start . I want very easy technology to start my career in tech

[@kannan3801]

Provided by your HR background, you can try learning data science which has business components involved...To really know,I think you should try courses in udemy ($10).For example : Python Bootcamp 2021 by Angela Yu.

[@keokio7]

honestly, all tech jobs pay well so no need prioritize a job based on pay. Find what you enjoy first
