Changing Careers - Advice on moving from Business Development to IT?

We Answered:

Lauren,

This is a difficult question to answer as it really depends upon where your own personal strengths lie. If you are a great written and verbal communicator systems analyst/system architecture would be the best route. However if you are more interested in the technical aspects of IT networking/application development may be your better path.

I believe that you would fare better by looking for a IT job at the company you work at now and let them pay for any education. This will save you money and will get you a higher quality of training than the beginner classes and will help you to get promoted faster.

Good luck,
-Chris

Find something you enjoy doing. Going back to school isn't a bad idea. Make a list of your strengths and your interests as well as your weaknesses. Then look at jobs/careers that would fit into what you have to offer and don't use too much of your weaknesses, ie. if you're bad at math, don't go into accounting...

Best of luck, take your time and really think about your options. You do what you love girl!
