Your sentence… I basically reject candidates make spelling mistakes in their CVs….

March 27, at am. Thanks for your comment…and why not put this in the public comment? Good catch for your bugs. I see what you mean. June 25, at am. Thanks for the article, I am also intending to become a tester. Through this article I imagined everything should start from where. June 30, at am. July 18, at pm. Many many thanks for your very informative and realistic article.

September 7, at am. I found your article very helpful, because i am planning to start my career in software testing. I am graduated in different field not computer science but i would like to shift to software testing. I hope the tips given by you may work for me to stand in this field. September 22, at pm. However, whatever field you come from, you need to work hard to become a tester. No shortcut or quick-win. April 26, at am. I have a decent knowledge in Web Design, would that be enough knowledge to jump to this field?.

But do you think companies will hire people past their prime? It may be a silly question, but I know there are people out there who have the same thing in mind. April 26, at pm.

You no longer like it? Not making good money with it? Too competitive to find job? Knowing the why can help me provide a better answer. Re: But do you think companies will hire people past their prime? I believe there are companies will hire people past their prime. Instead, I would focus on Web Design because you already had a very good competitive edge with it.

Focus on your strength and make it work for you. May 18, at pm. June 14, at am. July 11, at pm. I have very little experience in IT, Had done some Higher Diploma in System Management at least 16 years back, never managed to secure a job in it field. I know where I would like to go, what I would like to achieve, but not finding the path to reach there if you know what I mean.

But today reading your article is giving me a great hope, you making me believe that there are many other people also like me struggling in their own shadow. Do I need to know some programming language as well? I would like to start as a Manual tester 1st, what are the courses I should obtain or what should I know exactly to become a Manual Tester? But when I read some of the feedback, one of the gentleman is on his 50 and looking to switch career which is giving me a great boost of confidence that if a 50 years can think of moving why not me?

Greatly appreciate your effort for putting up the information online for sharing with us. I will certainly connect you in LinkedIn in order to keep in touch with a selfless great person like you Thanh. July 23, at pm. First off, sorry for late response. Actually, I read your comment right after you posted. He cares enough to make such a long comment.

However, I kept procrastinating to write you back. Again, so sorry if I keep you waiting for so long. Because you wanted to become a manual tester. Those of what you asked can help but they are not required skills.

As a manual tester, most of the time often spent on finding bugs, executing test cases, write new tests, reporting your test result, reviewing reported bugs with developers. Me: First off, switching career is always hard regardless of the ages. I always share the feelings when someone writes to me and ask me if they should switch career or if they are too old to switch career. Hope you realize your question is not an easy one. Because people are different.

They may not live in the same country. They may not have the same education. They may not have the same financial status. They may not have the same strings attached. Are they looking for certification? Are they looking for automation skill? Are they looking for bug finding skills? You can learn by yourself, learn online or offline course. Choose what fits you well. Offline course is the best if you have time. If not online course is a good choice too you can take course on Udemy, there are a lot of cheap courses there 3 Earn a certification e.

This is really helpful because it will give you a head-start. Some employers do not value the certification, but most of them still value certification. Stick to those first and see how things go. Did you send me connection on LinkedIn? October 9, at pm. December 31, at am. July 17, at pm. It is not mandatory, but it will help increase your chances of getting the job.

Most of the companies have this criterion. After this, when you apply for permanent jobs in big corporations you will have many Software tester skills to offer as well some practical freelancing experience which may be of value and will increase your chances of being selected. Skip to content.

To excel in any profession or job, one must have a significant degree of passion for it.

The core area of Testing lies in Test management. There are lots of Software Testing tools for Test management. The IT industry is moving towards Agile. So you should know the bug lifecycle. If you ask me what exactly a Software Tester has all the technical skills, then the list will be very long.

Different skills are required at different stages of the Testing position. For example, an entry-level Tester would be required to know just the basics of software testing and years experienced would be expected to know about database testing, Linux commands, and any test management tool. There are lots of areas to learn in the IT industry. If you are an entry-level Tester or you are appearing for a Software Testing role, Basic knowledge of databases will ease your job search.
