You basically taught me what my entire college experience failed to teach me about careers in less than an hour. And I went to Berkeley

[daliwood]

Thank you. On the way to be the UX Designer with traditional education courses (non-degree major), self-taught knowledge, online certificate and a mentor. Hopefully get an entry level job after 6 months. It's eye opening to see so many jobs also recruit people without traditional degree as long as you demonstrate your skills and ability.

[manuoliver]

Please more emphasis on the data science pls

[wladimiracevedo]

An incredibly informative video, thank you so much! In my case, I have a B.Sc. degree (geology) but after finish university, I realized that I don't want to dedicate my life to that career, although I enjoy science I always had a sensibility to the arts and after a mini existentialism crisis, I concluded that through the design I can have a better approach to both worlds. Also, I understood that technology is shaping our future like never before, and I want to form part of that.

For that reason, have spent the last months studying UX and UI to aspire to get a job as a digital product designer. I'm definitely not willing to get a degree in design for this purpose, but I'm not sure if a Bootcamp would be necessary, also I don't have much time and money but I trust that I will reach my goal during the first trimester of the coming year.

Thank you again, I will stay tuned to your videos.
Greetings from Chile

[cheesyboycosmik]

Thank you so much, this is soooo valuable! Pure gold.

[gilgilbert]

I am not sure if this guy really understand the future of the tech industy? I did not see Cyber Security mentioned. Right now and in the future is the way to go. With myself in the Cyber Security field, I get on average about 45-50 emails per day and the average starting salary is approximately $85 per hour and many companies tech and non-tech industry are hiring like crazy. Software design, yes we need them but Cyber Security is where its at

[OhhHeMad]

I honestly have a hard time believing that one can get a role as a product manager with no degree or even become a data scientist.

[kaobimdi]

I can't decide between product designer or front end developer,
I've got a B.sc in geology but I want to transition to tech. From Nigeria

[karinailbulova]

Thank you for your video. Colin, I'm just starting my career in tech in the Customer Success Manager role (telephony company). What do you think could be a roadmap here in terms of professional growth? I have more soft skills rather than hard ones. I'm interested in Product Management, Business Development, Scrum/Agile Management. And trying to build a picture of my career roadmap in my head and reveal what hard skills can I learn.

[yousefhosny]

How do you become a project manager in a tech job? (with NO Degree NO Code)

[MrBittercoke]

[mopsca]

Super deep dive. Will I make more as a Product Uber Driver? Seriously though, do more videos on the non coding jobs for sure

[teerich]

I enjoy IT but am not a people person. Well, as far as external customers and having to provide direct support is concerned. But a good variety for right people looking to break in

[muralikrishna]
