i’m a psychology student going to graduate school for counseling :) wouldn’t consider myself to have a tech background - tech savvy enough to build my own pc and troubleshoot common tech problems for friends, but not tech savvy enough to understand most open source technology
Hi, me from a decade ago. You can't be sure!
I got out of school and worked various jobs as a counselor, then got roped into IT for about a year and a half to work with facilities who were transitioning from paper records to an electronic system. They wanted a tech-savvy clinician's perspective to configure for the different hospitals. I'm back to counseling again now, but I loved that job.
No formal tech background other than building my gaming PCs or troubleshooting stuff over the years.
that’s super interesting! thanks for sharing - an opportunity like that sounds right up my alley honestly.
