It’s definitely possible but so many people want to “get into tech” so what will set you apart from others (with / without experience)?

Are you looking to be creative director in tech or changing to something completely different? (D&A, product, Sales etc)

When negotiating Salary, do you mention Glassdoor, Levels.fyi, or a separate source? Or neither?? Looking at a role I’m currently a candidate for and the discrepancy of pay between Glassdoor and Levels.fyi is absurd (IE Glassdoor average salary is almost 40K higher than Levels.fyi) Glassdoor also has more “data points”, for lack of a better term, than Levels.fyi for this role.

Thoughts??
