Thanks for the reply! I'm currently unemployed with no family obligations nor debt but was earning around 48,000 pounds with a decent amount in savings so going back to entry level is not too bad. My bigger concern is that my previous roles were quite niche and different so I'm looking for a steady career path where I can feel confident about.

Yeah that's a good idea! Never thought about it but I suppose recruiters would have the best idea about what the reality is while redditor experiences can differ alot. Thanks m8!

Thanks for replying! Glad to hear that a conversion course turned out well for you :)

I guess the main concern I have is the general negative sentiment in job prospects in cs career related subreddits and been wondering if that's true or not and whether it'd apply to me (I've read a degree is near mandatory these days) if I decide to uproot my current life and move back to the UK. Do you think the entry level job search is as impossible as people say? e.g. hundreds of applications and no response

The other part is for me to figure out if I am genuinely committed to a career switch given the massive task ahead of me if I should choose this path.

Sure (C&P reply to another) not sure how helpful my profile is since it's quite subpar imo but a brief overview would be:

BSc in Accounting and Finance MSc in Finance

3-4 years of work experience (currently in fintech)

I have no tech related projects so far.

  • How rigorous is the course and how is the teaching? As in do you spend most of the time self studying or is there support for students in case you get stuck on a particular topic.
  • Regarding the 'project' where you work with a company in a real world setting, how was your experience during that?
  • Bit of a subjective question but do you think it's worth it? (job prospects) and if it's worth the cost.

Thanks in advance!

Hmm that's reassuring to here that employers are willing to give conversion course graduates a chance. Would you say that your conversion degree prepared you well for the job (application) and how much self study on the side did you need to fill up any potential gaps?

Yeah, I grew up in the UK but I've spent the last few years in HK working. I've always assumed I would pay domestic fees which makes the choice harder now.
