I need to get my foot in the door and learn the ropes to attain my goal of project manager one day but am having a hard time knowing what careers/companies are out as a stepping stone to get into this industry.

Hello all. Thinking of switching from IT to VLSI after 4 yoe. Any suggestions?

I’ve been off my last billable project for about a month, but my firm has had me putting in full days to work on important internal initiatives and business development that are being taken very seriously, and that include deadlines, etc. very similar to the work I’d do while on a project. Is it likely I’ll be laid off if this continues for another couple of months? How long do you think my firm might let me stay employed like this if they continue to have this much non-billable work for me?

Should he expect to come in at entry level or manager level? For awareness he is based in CT but open to remote roles.

I have a friend who graduated with a CS degree in '17. Since then he's sporadically looked for work in the field but not found any, and has worked as a supervisor. His coding skills have atrophied substantially.

I've been encouraging him to grind leetcode and apply for at least 10 jobs a day, I'm not sure how much hes really doing.

Is there any chance of him finding work? Would taking a bootcamp help him? At this point I'm considering advising him to move on.
