Hey, not sure where to post this but I’ll give it a try.

I’ve changed jobs many times due to the economics of the construction sector in Sweden going to shit. So now I’m all but ready to change my career.

Would it be wise to get a 2 yr degree and start over as an embedded dev? Other programming jobs have been scarce and I wonder if that applies even for embedded.

Thanks :)

    I see. These reasons are particularly why I’ve applied for embedded, as that was my guess. I’ve tinkered enough with Linux to get an appetite for it (I know it’s different, but I’m fairly confident that I understand why embedded is different).

    Reading this is comforting – it feels like I wouldn’t need to worry about a dip in the market in the case I to through with this degree.
