Career questions

Common questions about choosing and following a career path.

Which career path should I start with?

Start with the role that interests you most. Each guide lists the skills and a beginner-friendly roadmap, so you can judge the effort before you commit.

Do I need a degree to follow these roadmaps?

No. The roadmaps focus on skills and portfolio projects, which many employers value highly. A degree can help, but it is not required to start learning.

How long does a roadmap take?

It depends on your starting level and how many hours you study each week. Consistent practice matters more than speed.

Can I switch paths later?

Yes. Many technology skills overlap, so what you learn for one role usually helps with another.

What if a role needs a skill I already have?

Skip ahead. Each roadmap is a guide, not a strict order, so you can start from wherever your current skills place you.
