I am a 21-year-old freelance graphic designer, web designer, and technical laser machine operator based in Madagascar. I have been operating CO2 laser machines for two years. I want to know the best strategies to find more international clients online, manage my workflow, and eventually build my own physical workshop.

Is AI silently ending human creativity?

Artificial Intelligence is growing rapidly every year. Today, I learned artificial intelligence could create HTML code to handle the front-end part of a website; way better than I ever could writing the code myself. This compels me that AI is the end of human creativity, because it produces tasks with superb quality without having to use critical thinking or creativity. I wanted to become a software developer, but now I feel I need to change careers because AI practically took my job. What is a job in the tech industry you feel AI couldn't conquer and take place over people?

How do you pick exactly what part of computer science to go into?

For anyone going into computer science, how did you pick which part of computer science to go into? My current major is just computer science, but how did you decide exactly what part of computer science to go into? I have always enjoyed the problem-solving and programming aspects of computer science.

What is the best way to start a career in IT/Computer Science/Coding?

I'm afraid AI will take over most of those type jobs but also have heard the ones on top will be the ones using AI. I want to start a new career path but just worried what AI will do to it. Any advice will be helpful and the best way to start this career. I am new to the field and need to learn so any advice on schooling, learning, etc... would be helpful. I am currently working on my own website and app projects and watching tutorial videos and LinkedIn learning videos. Realistically what do I need to proceed and succeed.

How do I choose the right career path when I’m interested at multiple things?

I’m really passionate about different fields video editing, graphic design, web development, game development, and even business. The problem is I don’t know which one to focus on first. My main goal right now is to start earning money as soon as possible from the things I’m good at, but I also want to build a long-term career that I’ll enjoy. For those who’ve been in a similar situation, how did you figure out which path was worth pursuing first? Any advice on narrowing it down without feeling like I’m missing out on the others?

How far am I to get a software developer/DevOpt internship or job?

I am currently a master student studying IT in Australia, I switched my career from Retail to IT just because I can see myself with curiosity to know and learn coding. During the study, I set a goal to be a software engineer or a DevOpt engineer. I am now at my second last semester before graduate, I studied Front-end development myself before starting the master, and I kept working on self project to practice the knowledge I've leant in school, like building web application (here is one of them: https://www.freelancer-daily-scheduler.site/) using AWS cloud services. However, I always feel like I still have a lot to learn until I can get an intern/job. Sometime I even saw people spending a long time on Leetcode, and I have a feeling like no matter how much hard work I inputed, I am still far from only passing the job interview, and I am not even sure if I can perform better then other students who studied programming since their bachelor. Really need someone to share advice on this.

What are your predictions for the future of the IT industry? Do you think that I am preparing well enough?

Hi everyone, this is my first post on CareerVillage.org. First, some background about me. I’m currently a freshman in high school (about to finish the year) and I’m working hard to prepare for a future career as a software engineer. I’ve been self-studying computer science outside of school, and I first started with Harvard’s CS50 and got through the first three weeks, then pivoted to The Odin Project, another CS course, because I wanted to focus more on web development. I’ll finish The Odin Project fundamentals before June, and I plan to complete the Full Stack JavaScript path within 4–6 months. After that, I want to spend around 3 months learning backend development with either Node.js or Python. By that point, I’ll be midway through my sophomore year and hopefully I’ll start building projects and apps that are able to make an impact. Now onto the topic of AI. I’ve watched countless Youtube videos about how AI will impact the software engineering industry right now. The general consensus now seems to be that AI won’t replace developers entirely, but knowing how to utilize AI is a must. I have two questions that I hope people will put the time in to answer: Right now, AI will not make software engineers go extinct. But I will graduate in 2032. I know it’s super hard to know what will happen in seven years, but that’s why I’m asking for your guy’s predictions. Now the more important question. If you were in my shoes, what would you do? Would you continue on the path that I’m already on, or will you take a different route? If so, what would you suggest? Thanks in advance for any advice that you can share.

What's the one thing you would do differently if you could travel back in time to where you started your career / coding journey?

As a self-taught web developer, at some point during my coding journey, I got distracted and switched to a different language just out of curiosity. (switch from JavaScript to Python). Three months later, I realized that Python or Data science isn't really my thing. (I definitely see the beauty and power of Python!) However, I love JavaScript or Front-end web development more than extracting insights from data set. So for me, I would definitely tell myself to FOCUS on one language if I could travel back in time. 1. What about you? 2. What kind of advice would you give yourself if life can rewind and replay? I'm asking this question because it allows me learn valuable lessons / insights from others' story! (If you don't mind sharing!) As always, Thank you for your time in reading this post and sharing your story! I wish you all the best & take care of yourself! #career #business #coding #professional #timeTravel #Focus #programming #webdevelopment #python #javascript #careerguidance #education #Learning #careeradvice #careerchoices #technology

How do you overcome imposter syndrome?

As a self-taught web developer, I often wonder whether I am competent enough to apply for web developer jobs that typically require a degree in Computer Science & require 2+ years (or more) of relevant work experiences for junior web developer position. The requirement section in the job post seems to expect A LOT from the candidates. Some front-end developer positions also require candidates to know back-end technology/languages. Some job posts simply list out all the preferred skills they are looking for in a candidate. When I look at the job description, it just seems like I can never meet all of their requirements. Most likely, I only meet 50% ~60% of the requirements. While I'm confident about my ability to pick up things quickly, many companies want to hire experienced people :( 1. What's your career advice? 2. What would you do if you were in my shoes? 3. If you are a Hiring Manager / Engineering Team Lead, how much weight would you put on a candidates' soft skills during the interview? Would soft skills trump the technical skills in your hiring decisions? Candidate A: Technical skills(85%) + soft skills (60%) Candidate B: Technical skills (70%) + soft skills (75%) Thank you for your time to read my post & your willingness to help out a Web Dev Ninja -to-be All the best & Take Care! :)) #JULY20 #career #careerAdvice #technology #coding #interview-prep #impostersyndrome #WebDevelopment #technicalSkills #softSkills #HR #humanresource #jobpost
