My current package with AWS and VB is about 45k.

Recently, there is an opening for an IT role that is looking for people with no experience in the IT industry with any discipline falling under STEMs. The package is definitely attractive and I have thoughts on venturing in.

Would it better if I stayed in the property industry or should I try to get into this programme?

What had you chose after that?

IT role eh. I will not want to risk my brain cells if I am not IT trained. Today's IT speaks of not jus microsoft office but coding. I've a friend who graduated same as you, is in the DSTA but as a coder. C++ all these are like basics. Yes, decent pay, graduated from SIT (those uni in polys), FCH

You've never considered petroleum companies? Or lab analyst?
