    5 YEAR GUIDE TO BE SUCCESSFUL FOR LIFE:
    Join the the space force,
    join in as a officer with your degree, Join in cybersecurity field to gain experience,
    Do only 4 years to get your benefits from the military and possibly get paid for the rest of your life plus VA benefits,
    Once u out use the military as leverage to get a career in cybersecurity for any company in the world that you apply and make over 150k because you would have a degree, work experience, military background and certifications,

    Hi is there any way to work in tech part time? I have a full time in-person job I’m committed to for the next year for both personal and professional reasons (if I left now, it would be a disaster for the people depending on me and it’s funding at risk). If I planned to leave next year May, that would give appropriate time to transition the role to someone else. However, I am really eager to get into tech sales right now for experience and compensation, instead of waiting a whole year. I prefer tech sales, but I’m open to other fields if that can’t be done part time. Thank you.

    • @techisthenewblack
      @techisthenewblack  5 месяцев назад +1

      Tech companies don’t offer “part-time jobs, but there are remote jobs in tech where you only work for a few hours a day and still have a 6 figure career!
      QA Engineering is one and is in very high demand!
      I recommend this bootcamp, because they have self paced AI-enhanced courses (DevOps Engineers & QA Engineers aka SDET)!!
