WHAT'S IT LIKE TO WORK IN THE COMPUTER INDUSTRY?

What Training is needed to be successful?


I.T. has come from nothing a few decades ago to be one of the most important industries in the world today. In it's early days it seemed there would never be an over supply of I.T. professionals; and that working in this industry would be a guarantee of big money throughout your career.

While there are still lots of career opportunities, and scope to earn very well, the situation is no longer as simple as it was originally.

To be successful in I.T. you need to have specialised skills; not just in anything, but in the areas where supply is low and demand is high.
Plenty of people graduate from I.T. diplomas and degrees with the ability to program in common languages which are decreasing in popularity -and as a result, find employment opportunities scarce (There are unemployed people with computer degrees).

If you want a good start in an I.T. career, you need to either be lucky or well informed about what is needed in the industry right now,  and then very fast in acquiring those skills, before there are more people with them than what there is work to go round.

If you want to sustain long term career success in I.T., you need to be innovative, creative, and involved in leading the industry into new areas, rather than following.
