I want to ask a genuine question about this app. If I'm not an engineer or haven't technical graduation from any respected school (because I'm only high school graduate) can I still find a decent job in this app???

In tech, work experience and skills matter. Focus on those! Whether through work experiences, certs, reading or business development. The sky is really the limit these days. Leverage AI, Google, libraries, your imagination here. I understand higher education or traditional education may not be everyone’s forte — continuing to move forward regardless is key.

Also, decent is subjective. Look at the trades or the less compelling roles too. Plumbers and policemen for instance make as much as doctors, VCs, and so forth in some cases (also geo-dependent). The types of roles popular, in demand, or that pay well today may also vary in 5 years. It all comes down to your decisioning factors: are they pay, impact, career trajectory, challenge, growth, security, status, etc.? Start from the end goal and research your market areas.

It's going to be a challenge.

Be on the lookout for Attribution Bias in yourself & on your team. It's a hindrance to creating a high-performing, inclusive culture.
