HI EVERYBODY! Just a little note about how I am going about this video and you may skip to different parts: 0:00-12:32: sharing my story while in college 12:33-19:40: what to know in order to become a software engineer 19:41- end: my interview process ALSO every resource is linked in my description, hope this was helpful! xx
Im a highscool graduate, and there's no computer science degree being offered in our place. So by following your steps and tips, can I be a software engineer??
I really want to be a software engineer and I’m 16 and my teachers they say that I can’t do it because it’s hard and I’m not good enough but it’s my dream and I will fight for my dream and I hope that god help me to reach my dream😊
Don’t listen to that stupid teacher 😩🙄. They’re giving out free coding to high school students. You should look into it and try it during your summer vacation from school.
OMG - all these female software engineers 👩🏻💻 are coming out of nowhere slayin'! 😻🙌✨ well, at least in my RUclips recommendations! Yes to women in tech! 🎓💻
If you’re here as someone with a Bachelor of Arts degree wishing to switch to Software Engineering, this isn’t for you. She has a degree in Electrical Engineering which in my own experience as a Software Engineer (and also hires Software Engineers), this is one of the MOST COMMON degrees you’ll find. If you wish to switch to IT from whatever field you’re in, here’s what you can do: 1) look for the Information Systems sectors of companies in your industry - say if you’re in a bank, find some contact who develops those in-house apps/tool you use 2) start as a Business Analyst / QA tester - we software engineers, love working with people who are familiar with the user perspective - you can use this as your point of entry without development knowledge right away
Yeah I have an art pedagogics BA and doing masters in sociology switching to front-end web dev. So maybe the arts part can help but I don't think it helps a lot :') I would love to start as a QA tester or in customer support
@@blonduose Ohhh, that's interesting! I think if you can get some certificates for UI/UX development, it would be suitable for you. It's still a hit now. :) All the best!
Great to see someone like me who left electrical engineering life for front end development. I just remembered my college days. This video can be inspiring for many people.
No it’s not....the basics are easier to understand, but after already completing all the Electrical Engineering math I had to rake even more math to get my computer science degree. Optimization techniques and neural networks are much more complex than anything you’ll see in engineering.
Computer Engineering and computer science are subsets of electrical and electronics engineering.. You not only take a whole lots of maths in electrical engineering you also have to understand the applications to circuits, signal processing e.t.c so electrical engineering is definitely harder!
Thank you so much! This was amazing! I’m an electrical engineer for 7 years and I’ve fallen in love with software development. It is intimidating to change careers but front end development is becoming my passion. I’m self learning and this is very encouraging and insightful. I’m excited for what software development has for my future. Thank you for the links!
So in love with your story/channel so far! I’m a freshman in college right now doing CS, I have zero clue what career I want from it or if I even want to continue with it at all in college because I feel so lost. It’s so helpful to hear about someone already in the industry and get insight. tysm :)
I am also Electrical Engineering student in 7th semester but doing Front-end Development using HTML,CSS JavaScript and Bootstrap for fun and I love it.Wow look like your story is prefect for me thanks for explaining it in detail
This is amazing. I also started off graduating with an Electrical Engineering degree before finding a role as a software engineer. That was a long time ago now though. You go girl. Keep sharing those tips and advice
I also went to college for EE and actually just started my own career change to software development. I worked as an EE for about a year and a half now and am completely miserable. I am taking the bootcamp route though but it’s only part time, so hearing about self study is super helpful.
I am an Industrial Engineer, but I enjoy coding. It is my hobby and passion.Most of my free time I am coding. By coincidence I was considering your tips. I used the Cracking the Coding, I solved more than 250 problems in the hackerrank/leetcode, now i am on the competition and solving speaking loud when I am alone. I have the discipline to take 2 online courses monthly. And i have 3 apps already published in the App Store.About network I have talked to former colleagues from University. I had colleagues in CS. I also use Linkedin for that. I really hope one day to make my hobby as my full time job.
So happy I came across your channel. Very insightful. I am also an EE graduate considering SWE and found your channel searching for videos on this type of career change. I worked at a fortune 500 company in the downstream energy industry as a graduate engineer for approx 2 years and quickly realized that the energy sector was not as technical and design-oriented as I had hoped. At least your internship was software related! My capstone final year project was in Machine Learning, and I had to develop a Biometric Passcode using facial and speech recognition :).Thoroughly enjoyed it! Yet at that company, I felt so alienated as the technology studied was based on the plant assets and more conservative, reliable solutions. My role was more of a project manager anyway, with my technical interests only being satisfied with reading reports on assets, field walks and especially spending time with the technicians. Back at my university, we had some programming courses that I had always enjoyed, hence my present inclination for CS. My only issue is I feel as if I need to get some ROI on my EE degree :(. Anyway, subscribed! :). One burning question though: how many months of self-learning and interview prep did you take before applying around for the 3 months?
I’m always looking forward to your videos! They always keep me motivated whenever I feel like I’m slacking off on what I need to do. Plus it’s so inspiring and such a relief to hear about another person (especially another women!) who was doing CS on side because of being in a different STEM major. I’m currently an Applied Math major at Cal Poly Pomona doing the same route as you when it comes to learning all the CS and coding on the side like other full on classes lolz but anyways keep doing what you’re doing!! Your videos/experiences are so helpful and full of legit content =)
I don't have a CS degree but a degree that's just a step ahead. I just happened to follow exactly the same route as you did. It's good to hear there are people like myself.
This might sound strange, but I feel like we’re the same person, I was also in between math and biology, but I went through the biology route, became a nurse, but ended up working in the family restaurant biz, which is not something I’m passionate about. Also returning to healthcare just doesn’t appeal to me anymore. I had taken a class in computer programming and college and was very interested in it, I wish I would have gone with my gut. Also working for Disney is like a life long dream, you’ve really inspired me to look more into software developing. I’m months away from my 30th bday and didn’t think I would have to start my life over again, a little scary but kind of exciting. I might have shared a lot, and I never comment on any videos, but I just thought it was kinda funny how many similarities we have. Also I’m Mexican and love planners lol!
Hey! I'm an Electrical Engineering major feeling like I need more project learning and software side programming. Thanks for this video; it's super inspiring. ❤️
Hey, I just happened to stumble across your video and you've inspired me so much! I'm currently 19 and getting my AS in Networking and Cyber Security. I had a similar case where I didn't know what I wanted to do as a freshman and my major isn't what I want to do as career now. Im currently teaching myself web development (mainly front end because I love it so much!) and my goal is to work for Disney one day too! If you have any tips for someone like me I'd love to hear. Keep up the great work!
Whoa I mean Electrical Engineering? Programming and Electrical Engineering go hand in hand with Machine learning. Thats literally the future! You may want to revisit that venture one day! I wish I could of gone to school for that for damn sure!
Just as an FYI for people that want to become nurses. You don't need a graduate degree to become a nurse. Although being phased out, you can become an RN with an associate degree program. Most are moving to BS degree programs though. There are also LVNs which you can be with and Associate degree program.
I'm in the same situation myself! Currently a electrical engineering student. I'm enrolled in a Python bootcamp and I'm trying to follow this path for my future! Wish me luck :)
Omg I resonate with you so Damn much... the only reason I'm considering Front end right now is cos I Looove design and just trying to get something as close to it as possible! Thought i was crazy tho, so thanks a ton for this video!!!
thank you so much for this video! I am currently taking a data structures class (as a computer science major) and it is really difficult. I will definitely check out those resources! I am also going to talk to the walt disney company at my career fair today so this video was so motivating and inspiring to watch!
@@AlexandraSophia hey do you have a LinkedIn? I know programming languages but need advice on the next step. Interview and what to study. I'm already enrolled in Software Engineering (BS) at MGA in Georgia
Even i am an electrical engineer from India I graduated in 2019 and then I started learning development on my own but it was very tough journey for me to transform from electrical to development..thanks for this video😍
i have a relative who was an electrical engineer graduate from an IIT (india- one of the top colleges in india) BELIEVE ME IN ORDER TO MAKE TRANSITION FROM ELECTRICAL TO SOFTWARE YOU NEED TO BE VERY VERY ORGANIZED, PLANNED, AND FIND 25 HOURS IN A DAY.... you also need to keep doing competitive programming too... although since it was an IIT hence it was not difficult to find the internships.
Should someone become a software engineer if they are having trouble learning the basic? I spent a lot of time learning but I still have trouble with the basic and fundamental of programming.
im the same as you!!! im very interested in biology/ medicine but i did not want to go into the healthcare field lol! i looked into engineering but i decided to go with cs as well! i will be majority self taught too because i switched halfway through my degree so im doing information systems because it’s less credits than cs curriculum
I really appreciate your advice on this topic. I saw your day in the life video and I wondered, “what was her process of getting a software engineering job?” And this was perfect I honestly feel a lot better hearing this thank you. Truly great.
I currently study electronics engineerings. I was given the opportunity to apply for a second major. Right now I'm stuck between electrical and software engineering. I want to focus on programming skills, that's why I've considered software to be the best option. However, I think electrical engineering could give some stronger foundations on physical and mathematical skills that could be valuable later. Could someone give me some advice?
One question, do you miss the math and physics stuff that you learned as an engineer but will never use here. My friend who made the jump has forgotten all the math he learned. He is kind of sad.
I have a management degree and I want to change my career path because my degree not worth it anymore. I start learning python coz it's easy to understand. As a fresh learner, your story gives me strength. cheer for that. But I want to ask one question . After python language do we learn more language programs or after python, we can enter the programming world?
Im a highscool graduate, and there's no computer science degree being offered in our place. So by following your steps and tips, can I be a software engineer??
You majored in EE means you are smart. You took a lot of math and physics classes which are need in CS as well. This means it wasn't hard for you to learn to program.
Love hearing different stories of how people work in tech! I just uploaded my first video on How I became a software developer! Hope to see you all in there!
Did the embedded software course helped you as a software engineer ? I’m studying embedded systems in a French college but I’m also interested in web dev so I wonder if I should stay in embedded software and learn by myself the langages needed for web dev or if I should take other courses that’ll allow me to be a front end dev ? Maybe you could help me about this :)
I’m going into high school and we have something called PLTW ( Project Lead the Way) there are three different choices you can pick from and I’m super interested into becoming a software engineer, what i’m confused about is which one I should take to become one, computer science or engineer?
You can still learn coding being an EE. I graduate next month with an Electrical and Computer Engineer degree. Coding is definitely my favorite. Also being an EE, your school might FPGA courses. I recommend looking into that.
I am from Arts/Humanities major, study on Buddhist Philosophy..... is it possible to be a software engineer without computer science or major science degree? I am so serius about this answer..... because i don't have science degree.... But i love to code and wanna be a software engineer.
I'm also an electrical engineering fresh graduate and thinking of taking a bootcamp in web development and eventually making it my career. But my question to you is: do you not feel like you wasted those 4yrs in EE? I know from researching and doing self-study in web development that you will not be able to use the things you learned in electrical engineering. So im kinda in a limbo right now if i'm gonna "throw" my electrical engg degree for a web development job. Please help.
Im not really good at maths thats why i want to chsnge my field and i have a question for you please be genuine to it like is there any maths in coding and stuff like that
HI EVERYBODY! Just a little note about how I am going about this video and you may skip to different parts:

Wtf kind of teachers telling you otherwise. You can do anything you set your mind to!
Dana Zain do it then laugh in the face of your teachers in your google uniform
Don’t listen to that stupid teacher 😩🙄. They’re giving out free coding to high school students. You should look into it and try it during your summer vacation from school.
to become at software engineer starts at 12:30. Thanks for the video. Really nice to hear your story.

To be fair electrical engineering is harder than comp sci
i dont think so mate...

You majored in EE means you are smart. You took a lot of math and physics classes which are need in CS as well. This means it wasn't hard for you to learn to program.
CS is more about logic and problem solving than straight math.

You can still learn coding being an EE. I graduate next month with an Electrical and Computer Engineer degree. Coding is definitely my favorite. Also being an EE, your school might FPGA courses. I recommend looking into that.
Would you need data structures with web development or app software?
How many Leet Code problems did you solve?
I was a human bio major too. I was thinking about switching but I decided to finish bc it would cost more money

EE all day 💪🏻⚡️
Hello. Is Front-end development considered as Software Engineering job? I thought SE is different job.
I am from Arts/Humanities major, study on Buddhist Philosophy..... is it possible to be a software engineer without computer science or major science degree? I am so serius about this answer..... because i don't have science degree.... But i love to code and wanna be a software engineer.
what type of project should i working on for internships ?
I'm also an electrical engineering fresh graduate and thinking of taking a bootcamp in web development and eventually making it my career. But my question to you is: do you not feel like you wasted those 4yrs in EE? I know from researching and doing self-study in web development that you will not be able to use the things you learned in electrical engineering.
So im kinda in a limbo right now if i'm gonna "throw" my electrical engg degree for a web development job.
Please help.
What are you doing now? And in which country? I want to know because im also in first semester of electrical engineering
You're the whole package, brains and beauty. ❣
