it would be handy to pick atleast a type of role you want to focus on, at first, this might not need to be where you want to end up eventually (can learn from the road).

also for people who might want to recommend jobs it could help to give a lower limit for compensation. what do you need atleast. and work hours.

i think coming from teaching there's a lot of work in research that might be an easy match up but that might not be the type of role you want.

for programming there are also different kinds of programming roles. automations, applications, mobile, desktop/server, embedded etc.

what makes you tick when you think of work or what keeps happy when ur doing it, regarding what you think you wanna do?



Yeah that's a solid point you've broken it down well. I think it just seems overwhelming on where to even start with those different roles. Suppose research is my best friend and should see what I should be focusing on first.

I'm definitely one that enjoys the creative/technical mix of coding and design. I assume that I should be learning new tools too as in 5 years, a lot can change in the programming world.

I know I'll have to enter at entry/junior level too which is fine as long as there was growth potential.

I've thought about the research side of things but definitely want to be more hands on.
