A peek behind the curtain of what working in tech actually looks like day-to-day. Three professionals share what their roles involve, how they got into their current positions, and what a normal workday or work week looks like for them. The conversation covers the parts of the job that surprised them, the skills they use that they didn't expect to need, and the things about working in tech that nobody really talks about. Grounded, honest, and conversational, no sugarcoating, no glorifying, just what it's actually like.
