How to navigate the career field and find your passion?
Currently I am a woman in her early 20's working fulltime and loving my job; however, its unstable and as such I am changing direction.

So if there is someone out there who loves their job please include how you found that job and generally what you find fulfilling about it.

Growing from Tech support role to a Development role. Choices?
Hello 4 years in technical support. 1st line, 2nd line, exposure to being teamlead. SQL, virtualization related, current role connected to z/OS monitoring product. I am considering for myself which next step to take. Variants that I am considering: 1. Java software development. 2. Automated testing. 3.

I want to get advice from proffessionals who had similar forktree choices in life. Personally I do incline more towards Java Developer. Reason why Java - code that can be run anywhere and more easier to learn.
