Top 10 Tips
To break into, and thrive in, tech
Tip 1. Use your growth mindset
Reflect on what working in this 'new normal' entails by using your understanding of the world around you. This tip takes us to the importance of planning.
Tip 2. Plan your job hunt / search
Be precise with your job search goal-setting by prioritizing and set realistic parameters for which to measure success. Set SMART goals!
Tip 3. Be ready, but also okay with the unexpected
Think out different scenarios / different paths to the goal to your dream, but just know that things don’t always go according to plan. The point is that it’s okay to fail! Ventures fail, companies close, you don’t reach your goals…but you learn.
Tip 4. Leverage your (un)conventional education
Whether it’s taking an unusual path to a job or on-the-job knowledge training, you should always use your education (even if it’s from non-traditional institutions). Also, realize that your experience means a lot, as there’s no ‘typical’ path into tech.
Tip 5. Be resilient
Remember that there are so many possibilities these days, including paths to jobs. A little patience can also go a long way.
Tip 6. Be curious
Always be learning and creating connections between seemingly disparate ideas. This opens new doors, and it’s a great way to make connections with people.
Tip 7. Build relationships
Keep in touch with your current personal and professional connections, and don’t be afraid to reach out to new ones. One of the biggest perks of working around in tech is connecting with many people, as you get nowhere without it. Realize that companies and cultures are defined by the people, and that’s a truism anywhere globally.
Tip 8. Know your impact
This starts with always adding value to the organization, especially at the interview stage. You must learn the key value of the business, know the key performance indicators (KPIs) you’re being measured on, and map how your experience matches up. Knowing how to work with these KPIs and understanding how you make a difference in achieving these goals are crucial.
Tip 9. Be creative
Organizations wish to hear more about how you get to the goals and your way of thinking. Hiring managers appreciate resourcefulness, and whatever you do, you should be able understand and explain why you do it.
Tip 10. Join a group / get coaching
Sometimes you can plan as much as you can, and surprises still come up, and something unexpected might turn out better than the original plan. The world, and life in general, is naturally full of surprises.
Top 10 Tips
To get clients
Tip 1. Know What You Sell (and to Whom)
Get crystal clear on your offer, who it's for, and what pain it solves. Without this, all marketing and business development can turn into noise.
Tip 2. Your Friends (vs. Strangers) Are Your First Funnel
Don’t overthink it: your first clients will likely come from people you already know. Make it easy for them to refer you by drafting the communication.
Tip 3. Use LinkedIn / Warm Intro Map or Tool
Tools like LinkedIn, especially when you add in the functionality of filters, are a goldmine. Find who in your network knows your dream clients.
Tip 4. Prep a Blurb that can be Forwarded
Make it super simple for people to introduce you. One paragraph, clear offer, ideal customer. Try to have no / minimal fluff.
Tip 5. Treat Referrals Like a System
Use a spreadsheet / free CRM and set recurring nudges to check in with past clients and warm leads. Consistency compounds.
Tip 6. Debrief Every Project You Get
Post-project? Always be learning ask what was most valuable. Turn that into a testimonial, case study, or referral request.
Tip 7. Ask Your Clients to Refer Too
Write a short and easy-to-forward email your current / past clients can send to peers. The less effort for them, the more likely that they will actually do it.
Tip 8. Join Niche Groups
Communities are rich with leads. Engage genuinely, and send DMs that start conversations, not pitches, and definitely stay away from spamming folks.
Tip 9. Sales = Practice, Not Personality
Feeling awkward about selling yourself? Totally normal. It gets easier. You don’t need to be slick, just clear and helpful. I believe you can do it!
Tip 10. Build a Repeatable Pipeline Now
Even if you just want 1–2 clients, set up a light-touch system. Retainers and project ends: don’t get caught scrambling. Best of luck to you!
Keep in Mind
Fear is feedback, not a final answer
Your experience isn't baggage: it's rocket fuel
Tech needs your story, not just your skills
Yesterday's challenges, tomorrow's competitive edge
Growth mindset: your most transferable skill
Different path, valuable perspective
Adapt, advance, achieve
Turn rejection into redirection
Your career journey: a feature, not a bug
Tech success: built on resilience, not just resumes
