VLSI? or AI what in AI?

In a world increasingly powered by microchips, Very Large-Scale Integration (VLSI) is the bedrock of modern electronics. From smartphones and laptops to electric vehicles and AI-driven data centers, VLSI design enables the technology we rely on daily. Many countries in ASIA, like India, offer specialized training that costs a lot. Is the investment worth it? What is the ROI (Return on Investment) of VLSI training in today’s competitive market?  Having done a bachelor's in information technology (IT) and specialized skill training in the US but I lack enough experience in IT, and this project-based teaching appeals to me. Despite all this training, I am jobless. I lean toward these on-the-job cohorts from LinkedIn, which costs a lot, and wonder if it's worth it? All offer placement guarantees, mock interviews, and show income projections too good to be true. The same goes for data analytics or cybersecurity. I am having difficulty understanding what to do and how best to approach it. Should I be more focused on AI or be specialized in other than AI things.  any guidance is sincerely appreciated

Struggled with DSA as a Backend Developer — Considering a Switch to Data Analyst. Is This the Right Move?

I’ve been working as a backend web developer, and for the past year, I dedicated myself to learning Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA). Despite giving it my all, I couldn’t get a proper grasp of it — I genuinely struggled to understand the concepts. To add some context, I’m from a BCA not a engineering background, so DSA has been particularly tough for me to crack. Still, I didn’t give up easily — I tried for a whole year, but it just didn’t click. That said, I don’t want to stop growing in my career just because I failed at something. I’ve done some self-reflection and research, and I feel drawn toward the field of Data Analytics. Before getting into backend development, I worked in operations, where I used to interact with clients, gather requirements, and pass them on to the tech team. So, I already have some exposure to data and communication. Combining that with my coding background, I believe I can bring value as a Data Analyst. I know I failed with DSA, but I’m ready to give 100% again — this time in a field that aligns more with how I think and work. Does this career switch make sense? Has anyone here gone through something similar? I’d really appreciate any advice or honest thoughts.

How can I find a coach for a Career in CS/GIS?

I envision a GeoSpatial Data analyst working for a private company in need of my skills in Computer spatial Data extraction, analytics, and visualization spatial statistics, data visualization, and programming in Python With my analytical MS Office and Design skills, I seek to develop predictive models and create interactive maps for retail and disaster management industries. I am a student at a 4-year college studying Information Technology. To accomplish this, I graduated with a BS in Information Technology and a second BS in Computer Science/GIs with GIS certification, but I have little to no experience yet. I am seeking a mentor/professional to guide me in coaching for a career in integrating Geography, Data analytics, and Computer Science. The general consensus is that I am best suited for work in Government or non-profit organizations, but that is not where I like to be. Maps and Data brainstorming have been my passion, not so much Mathematics or statistics.
