CompTIA Volley
Episode 201: Tech Career Pathways
Carolyn and Seth talk about CompTIA's recent data around pathways for technology professionals. First, they look at the three buckets of skills that are needed--technical knowledge, the ability to apply that knowledge to solve problems, and durable skills like communications and teamwork. As companies drop requirements around college degrees, candidates still need to find a way to build all three skills. Then the two discuss the complexity of technology jobs. This complexity is a driver for high salaries, and it also appears to be the aspect of the job that is the most appealing for people as they pursue career changes.
