The Future Of Remote Working

[@lanesh7245]

I agree with you 110%! People on social media talking too much about being over employed!

[@Dr.Beetlejuice110]

FACTS, people have no chill about what they say or show online like these CEO's don't have any social media etc. they are not blind or stupid.

Social media is great for a lot of things, but also ruins a lot unfortunately

@@Dr.Beetlejuice110 some companies have teams that just research ways to be more profitable and efficient. When they find out some of the employees are barely working the next step is to find ways to fix it

dam ...... i never had a remote job in my life. just finished a software testing bootcamp, and looking to pass the istqb foundation level certification so i can FINALLY be able to get a remote job. but hearing this video is 😢

Remote seems to be for senior level minimum anyway. Fortunately, when you start you need to be on site to learn better and faster.

[@thetestlead]

Stay positive, jobs still exist, it’s just the percentage of remote ones is not as high.

@@tortyr666 I agree, even for the learning curve, I feel it’s best for newer people to start in person so they can learn faster and get a solid understanding of everything.

So mad companies want people in office. I'm glad to be remote but I know that can change anytime soon. Right now I'm in a QA/BA role. But which do you think is more future-proof in terms of remote work and job security --> QA Automation/SDET, Business Analyst or a Cloud Networking/Cloud Computing role? I really don't like coding.. I know some at a high level and have created simple to-do and CRUD web apps, but I wouldn't like working as a dev. What are your thoughts? Thanks for your vids!

[@thetestlead]

Hey, depending on your tolerance for coding you can definitely do automation. I’d suggest moving to the cloud over BA as a second option but I think it depends on your preferences. You may want to watch and research more about the cloud roles and see if they would interest you. Either option, I think both will be needed in the future. I’m not fully against BA roles, I just think a lot of it can be automated, so companies may look to cut that position first and just have a QA person add that to their job duties

Joshua Fluke just made a good video about this. I believe it's a move to prop up the dying commercial realty industry.

[@thetestlead]

That’s definitely a part of it, especially in big cities like NYC!
