From bakery work to data analytics 👂

Hi everyone 🌿

I’m currently trying to transition into data analytics/tech after working full-time in a bakery for the last 2 years.

I recently completed the Google Data Analytics Certificate while studying in my free time, because I’m hoping to build a more stable future and eventually find work that’s less physically exhausting. I also have some hearing loss, so quieter analytical work feels like a better fit for me long-term.

The transition has honestly been difficult and the job market feels overwhelming sometimes, but I’m still trying 💛

Would love to hear from anyone who also changed careers later in life or moved into tech from a completely different field.

Trying to start a new career in tech at 38 🌿

Hi everyone 🌿
I’m 38 and currently trying to change my career and move into tech/data analytics.

I’ve been working full-time in a bakery for the last 2 years while studying in my free time. My background is in economics, statistics, and psychology, and I recently completed the Google Data Analytics Certificate ✨

Now I’m sending out lots of applications and mostly getting rejections or silence, which honestly feels discouraging sometimes. But I still really want to build a new future in tech.

Would love to connect with people who also changed careers later in life 💛
