I have finished my B.com degree in 2017 and I didn't do it with an intention of getting a job because I was following my passion. Following 2 years I worked as an editor locally. In 2020, I joined BCA and now I have finished BCA. Now I'm trying to enter IT field in which I gradually developed interest. But lack of opportunities is making me ambiguous to choose between editing and coding. Can someone help with suggestions? (Sorry for the long story)

Ans: Thank you for reaching out to me on Rediff Gurus. No need to apologize for sharing your story—it help to provide context for understanding your situation better to me. I appreciate that you've pursued your passions and acquired diverse skills in both editing and coding. Now you should start exploring opportunities for hybrid roles that combine your skills in editing and coding such as technical writing, content management, or user experience design that also leverage both your editing and coding skills. You can try to get hands-on experience through freelance projects, or part-time work in both editing and coding which will give you valuable insights into each field and help you determine which path aligns best with your career aspirations. Wishing you all the best on this exciting new path, and please don't hesitate to reach me on Rediff Gurus if you need further guidance or support.

Ans: There are many options available. You will have to match your interest with what the job market requires. In IT field itself there are many options like Data Science, Data Analyst, Business Analyst, etc. Can go to other relevant fields like Digital Marketing, for which you will have to upskill yourself. Can do so along with your current job.
Developer role may not have a long term prospect with the advent of AI as a lot of developers are losing their jobs.
