My girlfriend wants to transition into frontend development. She has a background in accounting and want to use that for her career change. It's a fine balance between guiding to learn new things and trying to find her first job that would give her an opportunity.

I also have a friend who's a construction engineering that want to switch career to become a developer or a cybersecurity professional. He's learning Python and I try to help him a bit by guding him in some direction (I am myself a computer engineer and I work with Python on a daily basis).
