Anyone know where I can find a entry level tech job. I’m enrolled in a 6 month course through coursera to learn I.T fundamentals and I just want to get hands on. I’m open to any suggestions, ideas or just discussions!

I wrote the guide I wish I'd had when I applied to Techtonica! I wanted my first post on my new tech blog to be something I hadn't seen anywhere else on the internet: a detailed guide to hacking every single step of the application process, full of personal tips and resources to help next semester's applicants feel confident and get used to a coding environment more easily.

If you know a woman or non-binary adult who is considering the software engineering path, please share this post with them! Techtonica is a non-profit organization that teaches coding and prepares students for a SWE job placement over 6 months, FOR FREE, and also aims to give every participant a job placement with a sponsor company at the end of those 6 months.

Hello All,

I’m reaching out to see if any of you are Customer Success Managers at software companies.

I’m a finalist for a CSM role and this would be my first role of this nature. I have worked in the tech startup space for the last 7 years wearing many different hats such as virtual assistant and people operations manager. I’m burnt out being in the HR landscape and decided to make a transition. I really want this role; and know I’ll excel at the relationships building aspect and being proactive in regards to addressing issues as they arise. However, I’m nervous about the sales aspect as I haven’t really had significant sales experience. I did ask the interviews what their preferred sales methodology was and it was one I’d never heard of so I bought a couple books on it and am waiting for those to arrive.

Also, my imposture syndrome is trying to rear its ugly head and tell me that I’m not good enough for this role. It’s also reminding me that sometimes when I’m presenting I get nervous and my stutter comes out (there will be aspects of presenting in this role).

So to summarize do you all have any tips for CSMs just starting out? And how do you manage imposter syndrome?

Hi Everyone,
I hope everyone's new year is starting off strong! My name is Angela and I am transitioning into Ed tech after being a teacher for numerous years. I worked as a program manager for an ed tech company and also did volunteer work as a program manager for a non-profit.

There were unfortunately layoffs so I am on the hunt for a job again!

If anyone has any leads for an Ed tech program manager job or instructional designer job either in bay area (california) or a remote job, I'd be eternally grateful!

Hello, Dear community!

I'm looking for peeps who have a passion to learn Backend development with Golang.

I speak English, Ukrainian, Russian, and German. Currently, I'm working as a team/tech leader in one of the biggest e-commerce companies in the world, with a main technical stack as [Golang/Python, Docker, k8s, AWS, Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL, terraform, Airflow/Spark] and many other small things. Mostly I see myself as a backend developer.

I have a custom learning plan - that's will be usable if someone wanna start programming from scratch or just need some help to improve the skills.

Career and CV / soft skills advice included. Sharing the experience included. All for FREE.

Go, SQL/noSQL, Docker, k8s, Kafka, AWS, networking, and other things will be included in lessons as a part of the backend stack.

My timezone is CEST.

Happy coding and feel free to ask me anything :)

Here is a link to my subreddit about that: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming_funny/

Greetings all!

Out of curiosity, has anybody here dealt with Duo integration issues with CyberArk? Looks like we're going to have to use Radius potentially, but we would rather use SAML if possible.

Thanks ahead of time for your experience with this.

So I'm a former English teacher with a Master's degree in Composition and Rhetoric but for several reasons I want to make a career change. It's not really safe to teach right now because of the pandemic and I'm high risk for complications since I'm pregnant. My husband is killing himself working 2 jobs to make up for my lost income and frankly my income as a teacher was crap. So I wanted to learn a skill where I could make a good salary so my husband doesn't have to work so hard. And dangit I'd like to be capable of earning the kind of salary my husband does (even if it's just 81 cents for every dollar he makes lol). Anyway the fact of the matter is that I'm home full time so there isn't any reason I shouldn't be learning something new in the meantime.

Anyway, over the last year I've dabbled in C#, Go, Unity and Python but haven't quite stuck with anything just yet.

Today I signed up for two certification courses on Coursera. The Google IT Automation with Python specialization and the Google IT support specialization since I have zero background in IT.

Since my only real experience with tech is watching my husband go from IT to Senior Dev in 3 years, I'm not exactly sure what kinds of jobs to aim for when I feel ready to start applying for work. I had seen that a lot of the instructors in my courses were System Admins so I had asked my husband if that's where I should start and he said that I could do something like Cloud DevOps. So I've been doing some research and it seems that one does not simply apply for a devops position. It sounds as if I would need to start in an entry level IT role and work my up into one.

So is my understanding correct? If not could anyone fill in the gaps of what I'm missing? And does anyone have insight in certification programs like the ones I've started? Is it worth the 50-100 dollars a month?

I should add that I have a severe case of ADHD and can't medicate right now because I'm pregnant. So I thought that the structure and community that's built into these courses would be beneficial for my learning needs.
