I am becoming 31 years old and I want to make career switch to Tech.
Will my age become an issue of joining the big-Tech firms? Do they care more on how well you do on LeetCode or HackerRank?
Here're my background:
I held a Non-CS engineering master degree from a public school in US.
I possessed limited coding knowledge with Python, Matlab and javascript.
Originally, I plan to join Hackreactor and start out as a full-stack engineer in NYC. I want to apply for apprentice program in tech firms afterwards, like Airbnb or LinkedIn.
But judging from today's situation, the plan got delayed and I may apply for Georgia tech's online master, starting next Spring, instead. In case I can't find a job right out of bootcamp.
Could anyone offer some opinion? #tech #career #apprenticeship #airbnb #fang
