Career change advise- Thinking about going back to IT field
LockedHi everyone,
i am currently working as an executive assistant in a logistics company for 7 years. This job is my real first job since i graduated. i had a BS in Computer Science and Masters in Database management. it has been a while since i was away from IT world. I chose a different career field for a personal reason. I am thinking about changing my career and dont want to waste my education. i talked to my friend who is a front-end web developer and she actually enjoys her job. She did not come from any IT background and took the 12 weeks intensive training program. I want to find something that i will enjoy doing as my future career. what is the best way for me to do to get back to that field? Should i learn new programming languages like Python and Ruby on Rails? Am i able to compete with those young programmers? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
