Carmen is a Librarian turned Software developer. In this episode, she shares how she self-taught her self programming before/after work and on weekends, how she assessed if it was the right career for her, and when it was the right time to quit her job and dedicate full-time hours to job searching. We talk about how employers who want to attract non-traditional talent should change their job descriptions and how they should ignore resumes. Lastly, for career shifters, she recommends some resources on how to get job-ready... including receiving feedback on your skills from Hatchways!
