General Assembly + girlboss | Career Change 101: Your Checklist for Breaking Into Tech

Join our second of three workshops in partnership with Girlboss – A partnership where we are coming together to bring you a FREE workshop series for career changers, hustlers, and those who want to find their purpose and passion.

When you think about working in tech, what image comes to mind? Maybe you picture a coder in a hoodie in front of a computer screen working at Facebook or Google. But a career in tech doesn’t always look like this. There are so many different types of jobs in tech that you may not have heard of before.

There are multiple industries that hire tech talent, and there are many skills you may already have that could be used in a  tech job. But where should you start your career change search?

Join our panel of GA Career Coaches and Instructors as they shine a light on the different roles and different industries that fall under the “tech” umbrella.

They will share how students get skills-ready in three months, which skills are most valuable today, ways to narrow your job search, and how to get yourself organized if you are looking for a job in tech. Bring your questions on how you can get into tech and tap into the expertise of our coaches and instructors. They’ve helped thousands get a job they love in tech, and they can help you too.

• Learn the insights to get a job in tech
• Have a checklist to change your career and break into tech
• Connect and network with Instructors and Coaches
