Is there a future for switching to it?

In recent years, if we want to say that the industry is stable and hot, wITh broad employment prospects and good welfare benefits, it must be the Internet IT industry. The development momentum is unabated, the demand for talents is strong, and the salary is rising, which constantly attracts enthusiasts, people with lofty ideals and challengers to move to the IT field. It can be described as a crowded market.

"Is it really good to change it?" This problem has also become a hot topic after dinner. A few days ago, Zhihu, an online Q&A community, launched a discussion on this topic.

Beida Jade Bird believes that whether IT is good to transfer to IT is actually two questions:

First, how did it go? Is there any chance?

Second, can you change careers? Is there any chance?

Beida Jade Bird believes that the answers to these two questions are actually the same-whether it is good or not varies from person to person, but the opportunity is huge. Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Conference and Hangzhou Yun Qi Conference have pushed the Internet industry to a new development field. On the one hand, AI will not only stay at the level of technology popularization and application, but also empower all aspects of life. After years of technical reserves, the Internet industry will March into more complex application scenarios, and the future will be a decade of Internet technology innovation in China; On the other hand, the Internet of Things has become a "prominent school". The rapid development of the Internet of Things will bring huge employment opportunities to the IT field. What we need to worry about in the future may not be job saturation, but how to solve the problem of insufficient productivity of programmers in China.

When it comes to changing careers, in fact, few programmers in Huawei graduated from computer science, and there are countless positive cases of non-computer industry changing careers to write code. The key to self-study or training is that people who choose self-study sometimes overestimate themselves, while those who choose training often underestimate themselves, especially without real training. Many students who are interested in becoming programmers through training have defined themselves before training, and feel that they are also "fake programmers" and are not on the same runway as the so-called "real programmers".

In fact, IT training in China is a very mature industry, including a number of mature training enterprises in Beida Jade Bird, and a large number of graduates are active in technical and management positions! However, since its establishment 20 years ago, Beida Jade Bird has trained 850,000 students. In China's Internet industry, many people received training 10 years ago and took up middle and senior positions.

After the golden period of rapid development, the Internet industry has created a huge employment outlet. With the mature IT training and education in China, a qualified programmer can be trained. In recent years, the great development of the Internet industry can be found in the report "20 17 Global White Paper on Artificial Intelligence". The gap of artificial intelligence talents in China is at least 6.5438+0 million, and it is estimated that by 2020, the gap of new generation information technology talents will reach 7.5 million. Since 20 17, data science and big data technology in major universities have flourished, and the flow of top talents in China is quietly tilting towards the IT industry. If the best time to enter the IT industry was ten years ago, then the next best time is now.

How about IT? Beida Jade Bird believes that it is more necessary to listen to your heart, whether you like this industry, and whether you have the perseverance to complete training and exercise in order to successfully change careers. In the IT industry, it is not difficult to achieve high-paying employment and wealth freedom as long as you follow the trend. In the Internet age, IT is neither too late nor too late to engage in the IT industry. As long as you have the heart, you can realize your IT dream.
