I personally know somebody who started working in tech with absolutely no prior experience. From that story I think two pieces of information are something you might find useful: 1. it's easiest to enter manual testing and then figure out next steps after a year or two 2. it's important to have somebody who is willing to give you 2-3 days of proper training on basic bits that everyone in the field just knows and then who would be willing to pick up a phone from you when you encounter something you don't know - after 2-3 months you'll notice you are not calling that person that often There is also third thing I always suggest - if you don't have a LinkedIn profile it's good time to create one, even if it does not contain experience you don't want to show. Once you have a profile start actively searching through suggested contacts and try to link with people who are recruiting in the area you want to start working in (I always add personalized invite message). It's entirely possible to grow your network into 500+ connections within ~3 months if you do this regularly a few minutes every day. Once you have your network sorted you will start seeing offers that fit you, mute (but don't disconnect from) everyone else who is posting spam.
