π From the Top
April 2025 is here, and the job market is changing fast. With 1.9 million manufacturing jobs expected to go unfilled by 2033, now is the time to gain skills that employers desperately need.
The AI market will hit $190 billion this year, creating huge opportunities for career changers. These trends matter to you whether you're looking at supply chain work or wanting to use tech skills to start your own business.
This week, we're looking at how the right skills and smart career moves can help you succeed in today's specialized job market.
Our interviews this week show how career changes can transform your future in tech. Scott Sorochak started as a software engineer and became a venture capital partner. People in supply chain and plumbing are finding quick paths to stable careers through training programs that fill critical skill gaps. Cybersecurity jobs will grow 33% through 2033, showing how specialized knowledge creates lasting career options. Major tech events happening this April, like QCon London and Georgia Technology Summit, continue to shape what's possible in tech careers.
