People are scared to shift into an IT career, and they’re missing out on a ton of opportunities. 🤔
Why? Because it’s unfamiliar territory, and they don’t know what to expect. 😥
But that doesn’t mean you should let fear keep you from making the most of your career! 🤗 Here’s how you can overcome your fear and start building an IT career:
Study up on the field you want to shift into. ✍ Look at job descriptions and see what skills are required for people who work in that industry.🔍 Find out which companies hire from within their own ranks and where they’re located so you can network with them during your studies or even after graduation.🧑💻
Enrol in an online coding bootcamp!👨🏫 Bootcamps typically last anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, and they can be in-person or online.💻 They are often taught by industry professionals who have real-world experience in the field, and they are designed to be hands-on, with a focus on practical skills that can be applied in a professional setting.🧑💼
It might seem daunting at first—like shifting careers is something only for people who have no fear of failure or success.🚀 But really, everyone has felt these feelings before—it’s just a matter of learning how to manage them so that they don’t hold us back from reaching our goals!💪
