Rebooting Your Career Development
Rebooting Your Career Development
Go to college. Get a job. Its that easy, right?
If things ever were that simple, those days have long since passed. Today, companies expect their employees to possess more than a college degree and a strong will to work they want their IT pros to be informed about industry trends, confident about their career paths and in command of a wide range of technical and business skills. If youre afraid you fall short of meeting these requirements, fear not. Youre not alone.

Women of Tech: Hear Us Roar, A Special Series
Women of Tech: Hear Us Roar, A Special Series
There's no doubt that women coders, developers, designers,
and programmers are a powerful force in the modern tech industry, despite
their smaller numbers compared to men. At the same time many of the major
impacts and innovations of women at every level of the development and
evolution of technology--from the first female coders to today's Web 2.0
pioneers--aren't all that well known.
But starting now, O'Reilly Media aims to celebrate and give voice to the
real-world experiences and concerns of these female trailblazers by
publishing a new online series, "Women in Tech." The brainchild of Tatiana
Apandi, an associate editor at O'Reilly, the series features articles
solicited from technology's female side--and all focused on what it's like
to carve out a career in technology.
Join the fun at Women in Tech.
