Computer careers

Careers in computing can be great, but you need to have the right aptitude to be really successful. Bear in mind that you tend to spend your day working with a machine - a lot of people leave the industry after a few years because it's a bit lonely.

The computer industry is growing all the time, but so is the computer skills education industry. Over the last few years, a lot of people have done training courses believing that there is an oversupply of jobs in the industry, only to find out that in some areas there is in fact an oversupply of skilled workers. Check out your employment prospects before you take the plunge.

If you get it right, working with computers can be very intellectually challenging, well-paid, and you'll be well in demand.
