Even worse, I want to eventually transition into, not only a different stack, but to a different subfield altogether. The odds are likely stacked against me, but I have a few strategies to try to make myself more appealing to employers.
What I don't understand is, let's say I'm a web developer with say a decade of experience, and want to do something different (ML, embedded, game dev, etc.). Do I need to look for entry level / junior jobs in the field I want to move to, because although my 10 years of previous experience isn't completely useless, it's significantly different.
- mad_eye_ai 7y agoSame problem here. Web developer with a decade of experience moving into ML. Ended-up getting a mid-level ML job. It makes sense to me - I am not a junior and I can't call myself senior without any commercial experience in this field. Got a pay cut accordingly but I find it fair.
