    Good luck in your search. I have been in the IT industry since 1971 and while at times stressful, it has also been very rewarding. I retired from full time work 2 years ago and now work as a consultant 3 days a week (now 64).

      Hi can I ask I'm trying to currently study coding and networking to move across into an IT related field from electrical engineering. Any tips on what not to bother learning and what is essential in the current climate?
      Given my past experience I think a networking role would be an easier role to transition into and I'm thinking of taking the Cisco and CCNA qualifications via UCertify eventually. I don't have any real professional experience in IT right now other than building PC's a bit of networking experience and html coding in my personal time, but I'm hoping to do some volunteer work somewhere to get my foot in the door as it were.

    I just had my first ever phone interview for a programming job yesterday. It was intense, very technical (even the behavior questions), and a lot different from any other job interview I've had before, but these videos about your job hunt made me feel a lot more relaxed about my interview and my own job hunt. Good luck with your interviews!

    Jake, If you're stuck for an interview spot in that area again, head to the General Assembly campus by the station, the super friendly staff would show you around and let you take your calls.

    Hey, it's definitely fine about the reapplying thing. In a couple years they will have forgotten and maybe at that point it wasn't the best fit but now it is because you've changes/they've changed... the stars are aligning.

  • @Teckno77
    @Teckno77 6 років тому

    Re applying is only an issue if they ask if you have applied before which only a few companies will ask usually. I've turned down a few positions before and they will contact you again if you interviewed well in the past so I never worry, most firms would rather you say no if it's not right for you at the time and will respect your honesty.

  • @Teckno77

    I have to say having been made redundant multiple times and being at that point of giving up when job hunting after goes on for months and months don't give up! Persistance is the key and apply for anything and everything you can, one thing as well try and keep a log on paper of things you apply for as if a company calls back and you ask what job they are calling about it looks a bit bad lol. It's hard to keep track when you are bulk applying and sifting through email application receipts isn't as easy as looking in a paper log/diary in my opinion. Be open to doing temp contracts even if they sound shit, even unemployed I found myself looking for the 'right' job and dismissing others too easily. Treat job hunting as a job in itself, get up early dress smart even if you're just at home and plan the time out in your day for various job hunting tasks, it really really helps. No doubt most people already know all this stuff but hopefully it might help someone hopefully, being unemployed can be soul destroying but staying positive is the key.

    Hey nice vlog. Haven’t watched your stuff for quite a while. Being with pneumonia the last three weeks was a shitty thing. But I’m kinda back on track now. Glad you’re getting interviews at least. I came in the UK in Feb and I had two. Was a nice experience. In the Maritime sector :) keep 8t going.

  • @enfufang9213
    @enfufang9213 6 років тому

    Someone with an employment history of 2 years at one place and 2 months at another will inevitably raise a red flag. This fact does not go unconsidered, even if the prospective employer states otherwise. At the same time, most people can relate to the experience of leaving an ill-fitted situation. I have a feeling that those interviewers know that you're an honest person who's pursuing a difficult, but genuine path. A hiring committee, however, will turn down a virtuous and qualified candidate if they know, or feel as though, they're not "the one" for you. When you meet the right people at the right place, you'll know. You'll feel really happy to talk to them and they'll know, too.

      Since they use different operating systems, the software aspect is pretty relevant, so I'd say your best bet is to ask people at the university. You can often find a facebook page/group for the computer science department at your uni, and just ask there - people will be happy to help

      a lot of people in the programming space use macs because it's a better os for it, windows is not the best and can lead to some pain especially with installing toolchains, but macs are expensive and obviously don't run windows exclusive software
