Will it help if take short courses? My spouse used to work as programmer and analyst in the past and had Masters degree in computer science. Your advices will be greatly appreciated

Find an agency or private school who offers small course with internship. Ex. BusyQA in GTA, Canada.
They provide paid co op opportunities and they help find a job as well. Hope this will help

Simply filling out electronic applications has a very low success rate. Your spouse has an employment gap, and companies often dismiss applications without a second look.

To get around that, use Linkedin to find hiring managers and attempt to call or email them directly. Look on Github for people doing projects that match your spouse's background. Send them a message, maybe they know about a spot where they work.

Attend local meetups, and talk with people in the field. Is anyone hiring? Most cities have plenty of user groups and professional societies that provide lots of contacts.

Thanks for your insights. I will let me spouse know about the local meetups. I have also learned about returnship program. He has been in touch with several recruiters.

Has anyone read any interesting books on how to approach QA?

On my team, software engineers end up creating test cases by writing up step-by-step guides for each ticket. QA employees follow these and innovate them where they can - but they ultimately need SEs to provide them A LOT.

This process seems dumb - the test cases disappear after the ticket is completed and I feel like QA isn't much of a professional role if they just follow guides provided to them.

Is there a better way?

Jr PjM/BA 4 YOE in Tech Implementation Consulting. Beginner skills in Python, JS, HTML, CSS, AWS, SailPoint. Moderate in Azure, Okta. Have PMP, Certified Scrum Master, M.Sc., BBA.

Taking CompTia N+ soon, and realizing its low demand. What certs & projects should I do to land a technical role within 1 yr?

I’ve been working as a data analyst for about 5 years, and I’m wanting to switch careers into SE. I recently finished a python course, and I’m unsure of my next steps. I’ve seen some posts about pros and cons of boot camps or learning additional languages but with my current experience, would either of these be a realistic path to get a job? Or would I need something like an additional degree to get my foot in the door? Any advice is welcome!
