I’m now working as a Software Engineer in a mult-national corp. with main business in logistics & transportation. Mainly I developed JAVA apps. that automate our core business. Before that I worked for a startup for 1.5 yrs and did web programming.
I have a strong aspiration in joining the technology consulting field. However, it seems I get lost. I don’t know how I can achieve it.
What I’m thinking is, I stay in my company for 2 years, learn as many skills as I can. Then I hope I can join a tech-consulting firm and begin my consulting career.
My questions are:
1. Is my decision good? Or should i quit earlier or stay even longer?
2. What kind of skills should I best prepare for my consulting career?
3. I’m a JAVA certified programmer. Would some advanced JAVA cert. like JAVA certified developer help my consulting career?
After working for 2 yrs, I’m serious about my career. Would any expert give me some advice? Thanks in advance.
