Some things you can do to keep pace are to focus on developing transferable skills such as communication, problem-solving, adaptability, and technical literacy to stay competitive. Continuous learning like micro-credentials, and certifications are also beneficial. Build your personal brand and online presence to showcase your growing skills and be prepared to pivot and remain adaptable in navigating changes.

Hi Suman! Great question. I think something companies and industries are looking for these days are people who are flexible and adaptable to change. To your point, things are rapidly evolving, so it's tough to know exactly what is coming next. I think pending on what field you are interested in getting into, you may want to sign up for some newsletters that highlight the trends and any key technologies/programs that are useful to know in that field. Also, there are so many free resources you can utilize (YouTube, Google, free trials of LinkedIn learning) to learn new skills all the time! Best of luck to you :)

Suman, that's a great question! I agree with others that communication, adaptability, and a willingness to learn are important in any field, especially in technology. The tech world changes quickly, so being eager to learn and dedicating time to it is key to staying relevant. With the rise of AI, showing your efforts to become skilled, even if it's just for writing emails or brainstorming, highlights your learning.

Keeping up with new trends is also beneficial. AI can help with this if you don't have time to read many articles or listen to podcasts. When you hear about new technology, research it and discuss it with your managers if you have questions. You can learn together! Being curious and flexible is very useful in this field.
