Hello guys, I’m in a bit of pickle here.
My situation is the following:
- my lease is expiring at the end of May and so is my sisters
- she offered me the opportunity to be her roommate in Los Angeles.
- I’m currently in Cleveland.
- Los Angeles is notoriously expensive, etc
- Currently looking for an IT job in LA
- I have 4 years of IT experience at government organizations and just recently got the CompTIA trifecta.

What roles should I be looking for?

Thank you for your time.

If your goal is to save money by sharing a house, trust me by living in LA any money you *might* save on rent will be gobbled up in numerous other ways. Nobody moves to LA to save money. So unless you land a high paying job before you move, save yourself the heartache and don't go because it will be a struggle.

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.
