This week has been very busy, but very informative. While doing the reading "Critical Thinking: How do you own it?" I found it exciting the way how it showed what task would a person be able to perform if they have Critical thinking skills. I also liked this week's video regarding how to choose a tech career. I did like how in the video it was explained that working in Tech can be categorized as either working individually or working in teams and what positions would get you there. Although the video was a little vague I also understood that there are sometimes growth and salary caps for some tech positions.
I also found it very informative that some of the Tech positions required higher educational degrees or certain experience years in order to even apply. I did like though how it was also explained that in Tech what really matters is having the right skills and when choosing a job making sure the skill you learn are transferable to the new position one is applying. All said and done, This week was a good one because not only did I learn new skills, but I learned about what positions I might be interested in pursuing a tech job and also what really Critical Thinking is, and how it will benefit me moving forward when choosing a new job opportunity or even in my everyday life.

Hi Geovani, I agree with your post; the video was informative and shared many details about the expectations when working in a particular technology field. I always heard that an education degree is unnecessary for some tech roles, but many jobs still prefer some educational background. Getting your foot in the door is easier if you have experience—nice post, and best of luck moving forward.
