As someone who just had their first tech interview today, I really appreciate this post. Thank you.
While the interview went well, I came out realising all of my insecurities about changing professions and second guessing my decision to switch. Imposter syndrome plagues a lot of tech people, but I think it can cripple those who are actually changing their ‘comfort-zone’ profession to a new one.
Your suggestions are helpful to me especially about taking my time and not having to rush out of my old profession while I study.

Hey, I know this is a strange place to reach out like this, but it's my only option. I'm sure you're already searching for a job in tech, and if so, all the best! I just wanted to make sure you knew about one option that might help you transition careers if you need/want it: mousepawmedia.com/internships

It lists the internship as closed right now, but we have an unusual situation this summer that I might be able to leverage to open it up a bit sooner than August if you're interested. PM me if you have any questions. :)
