You got a job with a lower barrier to entry and then transferred to development. It's much harder to go straight to development with no industry experience. And once you have any amount of experience it's much, much easier to get a job.
- exdsq 5y agoSure - if you go to other sites Overclockers you'll see this is the suggested route (and has been for years). "Pay your dues" in tech support. I don't know why more people aren't suggested this route - you're paid to do your job rather than paying crazy amounts to risk it through a get-rich-quick-scheme sounding bootcamp. edit: It might be less sexy to get the A+ cert when you're a teenager and work up from there than to go to a good university and get a CS degree, but we've ended up at the same place but without crazy student debt.
