Looking for AI, Blockchain, Data Science roles. 23 years of age.

It's been a gap year for me, and I'm still actively seeking a job in the tech industry. I understand that the current job market is particularly challenging for tech professionals, especially for recent graduates like myself.


I'm reaching out to this community for advice beyond the usual recommendations of certifications, networking, and projects. While I currently work in tech support, I'm eager to pivot into a role that aligns more closely with my passions.


Any unique tips or insights would be greatly appreciated!

Does your current company have any utility for those skills? Always easier to start looking around where you are.

Second, better to get more refined with your interests - those are three very different fields, even if some data science projects make use of AI.

Third, what kind of “gap year?” If you already have a degree, then you’ve been to college and don’t have any gap years unless it’s your specific intention to continue to an advanced degree. That doesn’t sound like your intention from your description.

If these things are really your passion and what you’re eager to do, you need something that shows it. Passion is what you do, not what you think about.
