Good that you have clarity on what you want. Start with AWS solution architect associate certification. Dedicate 30 mins everyday without distractions. Jan 1 - Feb 10. Deloitte is offering free certification and will reward if you crack the certification exam. Check the recent email on cloud certification. You won’t regret this change.

Sure . Thank you for your reply . I feel little better after seeing your reply .

Coding is not necessarily the only path to success. you can develop functional expertise or automation testing skills or RPA which has at par success rates . it is important to stay close to your interest & strength rather than blindly following a trend. QAs have great opportunity to move into BA roles as well

I’m honestly tired of being at an agency and not feeling as fulfilled as I used with strategy as a career. Have anyone here make a career change? if so, what other jobs out there - outside of agencies and client side - can you apply what you know as a strategist? Curious if anyone has done it and has some advice.

HiAll, My lead resigned and my manager informed me just 2 weeks before her lwd on this and asked me to take up all their responsibilities. I don't think this is not a professional way to handle things and KTs are not properly given. I'm really worried if this will affect my career. I'm not really interested to work in this project. I have tried many ways to release me from this project . But manager is really amendment to release as there is no senior member in the team.

Am I panicking unnecessarily? Should I hold my nerve? Or should I break the logjam and just accept?
