Lộ trình chuyển ngành sang IT rất rõ ràng, chỉ tiếc là phần làm portfolio hơi ngắn.

Trabalhava no varejo e sempre sonhei em migrar para a área de TI, mas não sabia por onde começar sem experiência nenhuma. Este curso traçou um caminho claro, mostrando quais habilidades aprender primeiro e como montar um portfólio inicial mesmo sem ter trabalhado na área. Gostei especialmente da parte que explica as diferentes funções de entrada, como suporte e QA, porque eu nem sabia que existiam essas portas de entrada. As dicas para adaptar o currículo de quem vem de outra carreira foram muito úteis. Já consegui uma vaga de help desk para começar. Senti falta apenas de mais indicações de cursos técnicos complementares, mas recomendo bastante.
