Episode 201: Tech Career Pathways

July 05, 2024

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.
