In this video I want to give you kind of a roadmap of how to get into the IT world. The tech industry is currently one of the hottest industries for the job market, so it's completely logical that so many people are thinking about changing careers to tech or getting into tech just after graduating from school or college.

And it's true that tech industry offers lots of career opportunities, but when you are at the very beginning of your journey it can be very overwhelming too. It is a broad industry with so many options, so many IT fields and professions. There is so much to learn and often you don't even know where to start. It's also hard to know which IT field you will be interested in and will eventually choose, before actually trying things out and seeing for yourself what you enjoy doing the most. You may even have self-doubt thinking that it's too late to switch careers or there's so much to learn you can never catch up with the people, who have been in tech since early age.

And I understand all these concerns, the self-doubt, the time pressure, insecure not knowing where and how to start etc. And that's why with this video I want to kind of show you various career path in tech and give you some general guidance for how to get started. 😊

The most popular IT jobs today, that will be even more demanded in the future are: software engineering, DevOps engineering, cloud engineering, cyber security or security engineering, data engineering or generally data related professions and machine learning engineering.

And for every IT field, we will see whether:
it's an entry-level profession
what they actually do and what are some of their job responsibilities
as well as what skills you need to have to get into that specific field
and some of the technologies you need to learn for it.

Most of you will probably want to get into one of those fields, but many of you may not know right now what you want to choose exactly, maybe because they all sound equally exciting for you or equally overwhelming so you have no idea which one will be a better choice or which one will be the most interesting one for you, which is absolutely okay, because that's exactly what I want to help you with in this video so let's get into it! ✅
