#70 - The Tech Story (REWIND): The tech guru Andrew Bromfield showcases the blueprint of how to enter into a tech career.
Bringing it back to a classic episode with Andrew bromfield the tech guru! The best part about what Andrew always says is that you don't need as much technology experience as you may think. Even being in tech myself and early in my career I would even go as far to say you can use other experiences to make you even more valuable than you know. This is a solid opportunity to learn more about technology and it's even more relevant considering the worldwide pandemic that is impacting everyone on the planet.
