A Guide for Entry-Level Tech Jobs with Web Development
The dread of starting from scratch in a junior position is highly on the list of worries for many career transitions. The fact that the phrase “entry-level” is frequently used in conjunction with other, less positive adjectives like “low-skilled” or “low-paid” doesn’t help.
On the other hand, you may have read that it’s tough to get into the tech business and that even entry-level tech jobs demand years of prior experience or a relevant college degree. Simply put, an entry-level position in technology serves as a point of entrance into the field and a doorway to a lengthy and fruitful professional path.
You’ll start out getting to enjoy all the perks of working in technology: flexible scheduling.
We’ll go over the best entry-level IT jobs you can acquire without any experience in this blog post, along with the soft skills employers are looking for.
In order to stand out in the competitive job market of today, we’ll wrap up with some useful suggestions on how to get your first entry-level IT job.
What Are The Top Entry-Level IT Positions That Don’t Require Experience?
Now let’s go into the best entry-level IT positions. The average pay is sourced from Glass door.
One of the most popular IT jobs for career changers is UX designer. Why? Because it crosses so many other disciplines, including as corporate strategy and UI design and Contrary to the perception of many other digital professionals, having a diversified experience (and transferable abilities) is viewed as a strength rather than a weakness in UX design.
UX design is fundamentally the process of creating a digital product’s functionality, usability, and overall experience. To ascertain their demands, user experience (UX) designers will carry out user research and develop user personas. Working with the UI, they will also develop user flows and wireframes.
A Cyber security Expert
Cyber security is the process of defending software and data from online dangers, such as data breaches and cyber-attacks. Analyzing security risks and vulnerabilities, inspecting a company’s security systems, and looking into IT security trends are some of the duties that a cyber-security specialist may be responsible for. However, it’s crucial to keep in mind that cyber security is a large sector that includes a number of entry-level jobs with a greater focus.
• Penetration testers, who’ll (ethically) hack their company’s security systems to identify potential areas of weakness.
• Security auditors, who’ll run ongoing audits to ensure a company’s security systems, remain compliant.
• Information security analysts, who’ll develop cyber security strategies, and monitor networks for ongoing protection against cybercrime,.
Demand for cyber security experts who can safeguard digital assets is growing as more businesses migrate their operations online and into the cloud. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that during the next ten years.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.

Ed Tech
Bill Gates recently gave a speech at the ASU GSV summit in
San Diego, California addressing some current issues facing
ed tech. Most of what he said was spot on, as expected, but
there were two cases in which he oversimplified the solution:
accessibility and the straightforwardness of technological
innovation at the college level.
ACCESSIBILITY
While accessibility is one of the most important
factors that contribute to technological growth in
the field of education, it means very little if using
that tech is a hassle. Accessible tech also has to be
intuitive tech. It has to incorporate user-friendly UI.
info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc
3. 3
Even if...
you have teachers willingto be pioneers and incorpo-
rate new tech in the classroom, unintuitive or difficult-to-use tech can be
counterproductive. More so, these products have to be geared toward not
just the technically-inclined youth, but to the teachers who will be expected
to integrate them into the classroom.
info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc
4. 4
Bill Gates
Microsoft
“As you get up into higher ed, it’s a lot
more straightforward because then there’s
an assumption that, largely, the
student is motivated.”
info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc
However, as Gates himself admits,this is merely an
assumption. University bureaucracy is a real problem. It can hinder educational
goals and bog down students with unnecessary and onerous procedures. All of
this works to stifle motivation. If students are unhappy with the administration,
it really won’t matter how much tech you throw at them in the classroom.
5. 5
Beyond these two issues, however,Gates makes many
profound points about ed tech. For example, he rightfully argues that VR could
be used to positively augment the learning experience and expand the bound-
aries of the classroom, especially in certain fields like engineering.
“I think virtual reality can make things more engaging…in terms of design, lots
of engineering things, there’s lots of places where it will play a practical role
and hopefully draw people in. Even if you can’t, say, build a car in the virtual
world, you can sit there and put the pieces together.“
info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc
6. 6
In addition, Gates warns about the potential risk factor of too much tech in the
classroom, and how it can become a distraction. This further emphasizes the
need for a healthy relationship between tech developers and the educators
who employ their products.
If we can successfully cultivate this relationship, we can encourage a healthy
consumption of media and use it to facilitate learning, all while progressing
smoothly past some issues like unintuitive UIs and unnecessary bureaucracies.
