Thank you! Love videos like this. Hits a lot of Q’s&A’s in mind when trying to navigate the next best move for anyone’s particular goal or/and end goals. I appreciate your help 🙏🏻
Way to go Sandra! Excellent content. I'm consistently impressed by how much information you put in these videos. I hope you guys are enjoying your new location and having fun!!
Aw thanks so much John! ☺️ Really appreciate your support, also thinking about posting vids 3 vids a week if i can get an editor, thanks for being here since day 1!! 😆
@@WithSandra 3vids a week would be great! Seeing your beautiful face and smile 3 times a week would put me in heaven!!
This is such a well thought out video! I would've found this super useful as a uni student figuring out which path in the tech industry I wanted to embark on.
I've been thinking about getting in to tech and switching careers. I feel lost not knowing what to get into one day I say cybersecurity,information management systems or artifical science. But I haven't done anything just all talk
I think you should just start by doing one, the same thing actually happened to me also before i went into web-development
Me too
Me too
Same
Same
Hi Sandra, glad I found your channel you've really helped put my choices into focus =]
Wow thanks so much Eddie! :) Really glad these videos have been helpful for you, let me know if there’s any other video topics you might want to see! 😄
Great stuff whole new world in tech!
Really enjoying your videos. I’m trying to breakthrough into cyber security field have been working in IT for 5 years now with a IT degree also have the security + but it’s not been easy.
How did you find working in information governance? I was close to applying for a job in that but it’s quite different to cyber security.
Nice Video! Always thinking about switching into cyber! Thank you for the insight and keep up the good work!
Which has minimal people interaction
Hey Sandra! Do you have knowledge about the Application Security Engineer role? I heard that you need a couple years of experience as a dev before leaning towards the ASE role, or do you think a Comp Sci degree with some security certs would suffice to get into a security engineering role? Thanks for the great video!
what did you do in backend/languages? I feel the same way about front end, i’m terrible at css lol
“No matter how much coding you want to do,
there’s definitely going to be a job out there for you” POETIC
I noticed you didnt mention UX/UI/Product design? Have you ever considered this?
Thanks!!! 🥰
Does anybody know of any online programmes/tools (maybe even games?) that allow you to play around with different tech operations to get a feel of what you prefer and/or you’re better at? I wanna try a bunch of tasks like css, scriptwriting, etc., just to see if I can actually grasp it and enjoy it 😅
This!! I wanna know too, I’m thinking about getting into tech but afraid I won’t grasp the information 😬
I don't think something like this exists. If you're interested in tech, just get up, pick one random language from the most popular ones and play with it. You don't like it? It's okay, there are many other languages.
Btw, there are some apps/websites that are designed to teach you a new language. There's Sololearn, Mimo, W3Schools, etc.
@@user-xf7mu7ub9d it does I can’t remember the name???.
I know this was a yr ago... did you find such resources? I only know of Mimo app for coding
Sandra, thank you for this. If you are interested in tech but in a creative field like fashion for example, are there certain fields you recommend or are more common in those areas?
Probably some jobs that have to do with advertisement, marketing, etc.
Not an expert, btw
if you love creating aesthetics, web designer or UI/UX designer
Ux/ui
Hey why did you switch out of software developing?
Hi! I am an accounting student but been thinking about switching to MIS to get into cyber security. Do you think MIS is a good degree?
i’m switching my major from mis to cyber security. if you like business and tech, i think it’s a good choice
Good choice but I would recommend an internship or coop to make sure it is what you want. Expect to see more accountants in those corporate auditing gigs of IT functions
Hi thanks so much for your video. I dislike coding, i just dont find it interesting at all, and my brain doesnt problem solve like that. I have taken database managment, and microsoft admin classes along with python and c++ at my community college. I really didnt care for any of them. But if i HAD to do one, it would probably be an admin. Im wondering do you have advice for me for what might be a good path. I have to work remote due to a disability, with zero tech experience. I have worked remote for 4 years in unrelated field. I have to be able to walk away from my desk at times, so customer service, or heavy meetings, or phone calls i would be unreliable. I am interested in the idea of cybersecurity but i really have no idea of the realities of the position. I am creative and i like to design, i also dont feel smart enough for half of these roles. I can enroll in whatever major i want but i am completely stuck. I just want to make sure i set myself up for entry level remote work, and i would like to interact with people, but more on a one to one basis, and like i said be able to walk away when i need to without being penalized.
If you like design, what about UI design? It's way easier than cybersecurity.
@@user-xf7mu7ub9d yes i am interested in that, or web development, i am trying to find a program that has a bit of software development and web development or graphic technology combined so i can utilize both skill sets. A college degree is a bucket list thing for me and i only need 2 more years so just trying to figure out what school has a online program that is a good fit
@@Alisha-qg3qe cool, meanwhile you could already give a look at some online courses/tutorials that are online (like on UA-cam).
The only advise is never and NEVER EVER sell yourself short , COMPETENCE-> ACCOMPLISHMENT-> CONFIDENCE
Sandra would love to pick your brain on a live Q&A😃
I don’t like to code…but i like to make a lot of money. Should i still go into tech?
😂 same here man same here
lol most people get into hectic degrees like my medicine friends because money is the main factor , I think a career or job should be something that allows you to to live out your dreams not , centre your life around your job
I don’t think humans 10 000 yerats ago were bothered about doing something they’re passionate about as a career , they were only bothered about how can I make my living experience easier.
I know the basics of programming but i am not able to choose the parg i want to take and so i am going everywhere and learning different things without any plan such as some times it is java sometimes it is flutter just going haywire , i am just not able to focus on anything so just trying to figure out where should i go. Just one thing is clear ro me that is i want to get a Tech job and get into the software field. If anyone has any good suggestion for me please reply.
I personally don’t think anyone can make up your mind for you , you might have to trial and error to see what you’re willing to put up with honestly
Because how can you judge something. When you’ve not gained experience or a lesson of how it is , you can’t say you don’t like playing a sport if your never played it , you’ll only truly know YOU enjoy or don’t like it if you’ve actually tried it , that’s the approach I’m taking as I venture into tech , but I too have let’s say “soft” interests into web development and UI/UX , graphic design
Please anyone here who can teach me Tech 🙏🏼
I’m someone that enjoys repetitive work. Any suggestions?
Data entry
I wish you dumbed this down for people who have no idea what you’re talking about. you threw in pent tester like it’s a common word & capture the flag.. please explain better in future videos
You could always use Google and find out what pen testing is yourself. If you need to be spoonfed this is going to be a difficult road for you
@@RepublicOfWesternCanadaNOW I don’t need to be spoon fed, idiot. I google this to learn about it and UA-cam is that platform. She shouldn’t be on here educating people on this if she can’t properly teach it. How the hell else is someone supposed to learn or succeed if they don’t know the terms and vocabulary. Please go into the medical field and tell your doctors to “just google it” and tell me how great of care you’ll receive. People use UA-cam for this reason to break down these complex things that are foreign to them and then master them.
I look forward to being successful in IT .I have a custodian background didn't finish my degree and still going to pursue my IT career
anything I didn't understand I googled.. helped a lot. Google is gonna be your best friend on this road.
@@donitta118she made a video. If she didn’t know how to explain it then don’t make a video. So take your comment elsewhere
Hi Sandra, Can I ask what strand and college course do I get for cyber security?
Why don’t you just go to college that have a cyber security program?
Hi
Hey Yelamareddy! Thanks for watching 😄😄
D@mmit Ravi, how are you always first moco?
@@phabeondominguez5971 interest makes many things
@@Ravi-wi5gx haha, well said, I feel you. Keep at it.. oNe
it is irrelevant but you are very beautiful
reading about people grabbing multi-figures monthly as incomes in investments even in this crazy days in the market, any pointers on how to make substantial progress in earning? would be appreciated.
The best piece of advice would be to not put too much in cryptocurrencies. Most have no actual use except for those who are already wealthy to pump and dump.
This lady right here, I trade with her she's inventive and the P.O.T are no jokes, i won't look awestricken u made mention of her
Great info but I can’t stand the California uptalk at the end of each sentence 😅
It's so bomb 💣
