Is it worth to enter QA in 2026?
I work as a sound technician in the TV sphere, the salary is pretty average, but I would like to find myself a job where I would feel more useful. Going to work and barely doing anything is very depressing for me. I have even considered just leaving it giving myself a break.
Of course, I had an idea to switch to IT. Even had few courses of Python to become a backend developer, but dropped it because of high competition, and also unrealistic demands and expectations from employers… I was considering Manual QA to be my last resort. But reading posts and considering the job market now, it doesn’t seem like a working idea. Do you think it’s a good time to enter QA? (Not only Manual, but also Automation).
I am 26F, if it matters 😅
