I’m interested in transitioning into this field and would appreciate guidance on how to get started, particularly as I continue building my technical skills. I have access to a reliable home computer and laptop and am committed to learning and growing in this area. My goal is to obtain a remote position, and I would value any advice, resources, or next steps you would recommend.

You have to be way more specific, there's a lot of fields within tech: software dev, QA, cloud engineering, IT/networking, DBA, cybersecurity, dev ops, data engineering.

Some friendly advice, since you aren't even at the beginning of this journey yet, I'd consider another field. Tech has been decimated by AI layoffs and there are thousands of highly qualified people who can't find jobs. The trend is only going to get worse.

I got a call from the Google recruiter about my L7 em interview Google She said I did overwhelmingly good on all interviews except one had mixed feedback on a system design. No surprise because it was not a good interview. The recruiter said i had a choice to go to hiring committee, give referrals they could call about my system design or take another system design interview. I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?
