UdukuRaktham Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Dear comrades, As the title explains, I am looking for guidance on changing my tech. I'm currently working as manual tester since 3 years. Had to get into this as I was in dire need of a job after my masters and due to few visa issues. Now after 3 years of working in QA, I lost all the motivation to improve my skill set and make a shift from this obsolete and boring job. I am stuck with doing same work. There is no opportunity to move to a programming role in my company as most of the team that I work with are eh4ead aunties and fingerprint local batch. I tried to speak to test engineer and also my manager to let me do automation testing atleast but they are not encouraging me as they think only I am the better and knowledgeable candidate in the team who can understand the requirements quickly and finish work on time. So, my only option is to move to a different company. Main problem is arising here. As I have been working as manual tester for the past 3+ years, I am unable to pick up a skill or crack the interviews. Forget cracking interviews, my profile is not even getting an initial screening. I am clueless on what to do. I have no one to talk to. All my friends say having job in YouYes itself is a lucky these days so why I would want to change..my other relatives and cousins have already started treating me as a useless fellow as I am into manual testing even in 2019. I can understand them but I am not receiving any guidance or motivation from them which could help me make this transition. So, I am posting here seeking help of my anonymous comrades who are doing IT jobs. I see no career in manual testing and also it will be tough in immigration pov also. I am interested in working on programming, test automation, aws, cloud, devops. Please guide me on what tools and programming skills I need to attain to make a tech shift? Especially having all my experience as manual tester, which role would be suitable for me? It would be great if you can suggest me a learning path and good resources to learn from. All this might look silly to you, but please understand I have no one to seek out help. I tried to mingle with software engineers at my company too but they feel I am in this job as I am passionate about it. I tried to talk to couple desi folks to thinking they would understand my situation but all they say is I have a friend who has a consulting company, he will help you or they say its tough now to change as you have acquired manual testing tag, I can't agree to that as I see many consulting folks switching technologies over night. But I don't want to get into consulting route and I want to crack a Full time job. I understand that its a big aspiration but I am not very comfortable in faking my experience and getting a job. Please guide me. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scada Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Dev lo fte easy if you have proper technical knowledge which you can get in like 6 months. After that try to do-some projects and put it on your resume. These projects will give you sime advantage over other applicants. Me and many of my classmates got ftes right out of clg w/o any experience... with close to 8 months of proper studying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
