Attended the Intuit webinar “Breaking into Tech” earlier today! 💻 This insightful session covered essential tips and strategies for starting a successful career in the tech industry. Special thanks to the incredible panelists and organizers for sharing their expertise and experiences! This webinar provided us with such valuable insight on the skills and mindset needed to thrive in this ever-evolving field. I’m more inspired than ever to continue my journey towards a career in the Data industry and I can’t thank the panelists enough for their advice.
