Hi, I’m trying to make a career pivot from a non-technical background (MedDevice regulatory). Trying to get UiPath certified at the moment. My goal is to do contract work, however there isn’t a lot of opportunities for RPA automation in the MedDevice industry. Not sure if this will change in the future. Any thoughts or advice?

Almost every industry has automation use case candidates. However, it's getting buy in from leadership by showing them the opportunities... Talk to the BU owners, IT or C level folks to understand digital transformation mandates and if there is an appetite for automation based on the use cases you identify.

Do you think experience as a DA or PD would be valuable, with my eye toward a future in FL? Both for the skills gained, and/or as a resume piece?

TY!

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?
