Decades Into Weeks: Getting Real-World Experience in Tech as Fast as Possible

This is a break from my usual high availability and disaster recovery post.
Since last year, I started helping people get into a high-paying tech career. And it is such a rewarding experience seeing my clients go from "no experience" to "landing a high-paying tech job".
I did this presentation at a NYC Code and Coffee event a few weeks ago. And I feel like so many people can benefit from this.

Breaking into tech, whether you're a student completing a degree or a professional switching careers, can be a Catch-22. The dream jobs you want require years of experience.
But how do you get the job experience necessary if nobody wants to hire you because you don't have any experience?
The job search process can be very frustrating when you know you can do the job but keep getting disqualified because you don't have years of experience.
It's time to fix this.
This talk will show you how to gain years of practical, real-world experience in the fastest way possible, and help you land that dream job you've always wanted. Drawing from my personal journey breaking into tech without a computer-related degree nor certifications, I'll share the hacks I learned the hard way to bypass the "years of experience" requirement in tech job postings.
