Understanding the different tech careers.

I've been recently researching the different types of IT/computer degrees, and I'm struggling to understand how they differ. There seems to be a lot of overlap in the various careers. I've been able to improve my comprehension/understanding by comparing the various technology careers to the healthcare careers. For instance, a web designer is a cosmetologist, a cybersecurity analyst is an immunologist, etc. Could someone help me to find healthcare comparisons for the following IT/computer degrees? Thanks in advance! Software engineer, systems analyst, database administrator, network engineer, IT support executive, computer science, and computer programmer

Could building a computer be called a job?

I'm very passionate about it, but among them, building computers is my favorite because I enjoy putting things together. However, I'm worried that nowadays almost anyone can build a computer by themselves and without their assistance

[Advice to Career Computer Science students] Should I start as a developer or an operational support in a technology company.

As an operational support intern, I began to wonder whether I should convert to full time and stay in the same team (operation support) or request a team change and become a developer instead? One of my main concerns is which starting point will be most beneficial to my future professional progress. Aside from these two positions, any other suggestions for roles are appreciated.

How do I get started in the tech industry coming from an unrelated field Are there any real pay to learn opportunities??

For the better part of a year I have been learning HTML, CSS, Javascript, Python, and Swift. I am still relatively novice but Im learning quickly. The trouble is that I cant dedicate enough time to truly practice my skills because I am too busy at my other job. I am in a position in my life to be able to make the jump into tech at an entry level or lower job position if need be. Meaning I dont need a high paying position, I just need something to get my resume started and allow me to focus more time on building my portfolio. I have a background in Construction management and experience in industry standard computer programs like Excel, Word, Outlook, and various CRM tools. Are there any job titles that I can look for that will allow me to get my tech career started with what experience I have?

3 part for Computer Programmers, What does an average day look like in your life? An abnormal one? (Hardest one -->) What did you do to get to where you are now? #spring23

I am a senior who is interested in the field of computer programming. However, I have not taken any computer science class/course yet (I have only touched coding blocks a few times on Code.org). I would like to get an idea of how an average day would look like, such as the hours of work, any difficulties, or events that not everybody can experience. I would like to know what you (or someone you may know) have done to get to where you are today. Did you go to a college? If so, which one and what courses did you take? Are there useful tips/advice I should know? What coding language do you use (e.g. JavaScript, Python, other)? One more: Out of curiosity, did you take the SAT?
