I can only speak for myself, but the current state of tech definitely changed my life in a very chaotic way. I was in the midst of transitioning from a non-technical role to a technical one, and then the post-Covid job market and the AI boom happened. I'm lucky to be financially secure, but I'm almost at the point where I will stop being as selective with job postings
Do you mind elaborating on what you mean by “I will stop being as selective with job postings”? What jobs have you been targeting now?
Pretty good video. Compared to most who create videos on this topic everything you mentioned sounds very reasonable and to the point. I don't detect a hint of bullshit. Most make these videos because either because they are trying to sell you a course or are in experienced and are trying to sound credible by sharing an opinion they themselves have heard from other RUclipsrs or on X. Keep up the good work.
Good no bs video. Great work 👍
lol....so a 22 year old kid is going to tell you what the state of tech is all about? I have been in tech for 22 years.....its not going anywhere....It transitions....as it did 20 years ago and 15 years ago and 10 years ago. Large language Learning models do not replace engineers. This is silly.
I agree that tech isn’t going anywhere. That’s why I’m currently working in tech. This video is angled for aspiring young people in tech who are trying to navigate a landscape that’s constantly evolving. The strategies I share are precisely for the transition we’re currently experiencing.
@@KJHardrict On this we agree then
@@philCTO So basically you are an arrogant judgemental grumpy prick who goes around the internet criticizing without even watching the video lol get a life.
Unfortunately companies today have all the power. There is a supply of experienced engineers currently looking for employment or even looking to leave one job for another. So companies now have their pick of experienced engineers. Someone with about 10 years of relevant experience and degrees will most likely get interviews compared to a graduate or someone with less than 3 years of experience.
You're honest. That's good.
Just got my CS degree and not sure whether to compliment it with ECE masters for embedded or stats for AI
They are not pivoting to AI yet like you think.
"be a kiss ass"
got it.
good and informative video
It’s actually very scary I even jumped out of contract because of it
Tech sales and product management? Are these safe?
Sales is always safe IF you’re good at it
What is that intro music called?

get your Microphone Levels raised up next time.. it was hard to understand you at times in the entire video.... Barely understandable!
you're spot on. in the future, senior roles with lower pay are going to be the norm. If you're a young gun in the service industry, consider making a quick getaway and jumping ship to the production industry for better opportunities.
Why only production industry? Is there any reason for that?
what is the difference between service and production industry ?
What is production industry ?
@@plant_hello by "production industry," I mean the manufacturing industry, such as automobiles, electronics, textiles, and similar sectors.
@@vpn740 you mean the non IT/Tech sectors?
Thoughts on biotech or healthcare tech ?
What about them?
@@KJHardrictDo you think its a good career path for cs students?
Yeah I actually think having a more specific field to apply your CS knowledge to can create more fulfillment for you (if that field is something you’re passionate in). I personally love building products that utilize AI. I think the biotech and healthcare tech space is fascinating and will only continue to grow as we have increasingly more wearable tech
