When you were 18 you were so lucky and brave to follow your passion and study what you liked. At 23 you realized some degrees translate themselves automatically in a career and others…ehm no 😦 What do you have to do? Simple – you need to create your own career, in 5 steps:
Study, study and keep on studying
Follow the industry’s evolution
Start working as soon as you can
Don’t be afraid to change job, whenever you feel a place is not for you, run as fast as you can!
Talk to people and ask for information and opinions.
I work in software development. I keep on writing from time to time People's Code to continue following some of my oldest passions: linguistics and language technologies. I'm Italian and I live in Luxembourg. Ah... the blog's name comes from my favorite definition of natural language: it is a shared code. It is not nice nor ugly, not simple nor difficult - we understand each other only because we share the same code and we (often) agree on it.
Ehm ho un altro blog in Italiano, ChiappeInFuga, per sapere di cosa si tratta fate prima a darci un'occhiata se no l'about me non finisce più.
