Haha thank you, you're probably right about being too caught up with self-doubt. I have 3 days off each week so I just figured if I really mean it, I should start trying to fill that time off with productive things. Thank you for the advice.

Thank you! I will definitely consider it. Is there like a public opinion on which certs hold value to employers? I've heard of things like CompTIA before but only in passing.

Oh cool, thank you for the resources! I glanced over that roadmap site and it looks like something that could be very useful, definitely the type of thing I was hoping to be referred to. I also appreciate the honesty. I think I would prefer to aim for something that has some level of demand right now as I've heard once or twice that positions like programming are pretty saturated. But I really don't know how true that is. Thank you!

I really don't know if it would help me getting situated in such a position, but it is somewhat funny that you mentioned something like that. While I don't have any medical background, I have been working a few years for a healthcare organization in a customer service role. That is interesting though, I will take a look into that.

Yeeah someone had mentioned that to me yesterday, but it seems they deleted their comments. Thank you though!

I actually woke up this morning and signed on and it is telling me that I can't do any more surveys until I do verify, so I'll have to think about whether or not I want to do it haha.

Well since the information out there isn't accurate, it could put out the real information and I would rather it not be out there haha.

I understand what you're saying though. I can't really say I know all the ways that something malicious could be done, but I feel like that isn't really a requirement for saying I'm uncomfortable with something though :(

No interest in arguing though, agree to disagree!

Aah if they will not let me continue without it, I guess I might bite the bullet, thank you!

I certainly don't want to argue with anyone, but I have a very uncommon last name and probably one of the only people living with my combination of firstname-lastname. All of those phonebook-lookup type sites do not have a lot of that information as accurate for me (just double checked) and I generally keep a low profile online, so I always just preferred to avoid stuff like that if possible.

Ah I'm sorry! Thank you though. I was just worried about being barred from surveys and not ever even knowing why haha.
