How to make a career change?

We Answered:

Your MBA counselor or the Career Center should be able to help you.

You may be able to find a large company that has both areas?

It's always best if you can transfer within a company . . .

Best of luck!

You may have better luck changing careers once you have your MBA . . .

Was a Tech Support for 1.5 yrs, want to be a programmer.I am very good in .Net. How do I make a career change?

We Answered:

I'm sure there are companies who is willing to hire programmers with no experience. They may not pay as much as you like, but they are out there.

Another tip that might help is to get professional certification, particularly from Microsoft. The seal of approval will go a long ways.

www.devbistro.com and www.mindcracker.com
are a good web site to post your resume.

You may also want to try working as an independent to get some experience before entering full time position. www.scguild.org is a good site for IT consultants.

Best wishes.
