A pathway to success: breaking into a developer career

I’m contacted almost daily by current students or those recently finished studying as well as those considering a career change into IT, specifically into development-based roles. I remember what it was like at university, thinking and chatting with mates about what our job would look like. I was fortunate enough to spend some time with a Melbourne consultancy working on telco project during uni holidays and that really opened my eyes as to what is involved in the job I’d likely go into.
