I didn’t think of myself as tech-savvy or envision having a career in IT at all! So I completed my degree in communications in the U.S. and worked as a digital communications manager in a few roles there and back in Paris. It was a great way to build my professional experience.</p> <p>After working several years in communications, I still felt the pull to explore the world of tech. So I joined <a href="https://www.paris.fr/pages/se-former-aux-metiers-du-numerique-avec-pariscode-5831" target="_blank" rel=" noopener">ParisCode</a>, an initiative and community within the Salesforce ecosystem that supports training and employment for aspiring tech professionals. Through ParisCode, I learned more about the digital ecosystem in Paris and gained access to tech-related resources, training, and community support.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-skilling-up-and-connecting"><strong>Skilling up and connecting</strong></h2> <p>Trailhead was pivotal in helping me get started in tech.

There’s no magic potion for how to become a Salesforce Consultant. It’s about hard work and staying 100% committed to your goals and journey. Even if you make mistakes along the way (and everyone does) or it doesn’t work out exactly the way you think it should, it’s an experience from which to learn and grow.</li> <li><strong>Go all in.</strong> <br>I always say, “Where the mind goes, the body follows.” If you have 100% resolve to turn a goal into reality, you’re more likely to take continuous, committed action to make it happen. So, whatever your goal is for your career journey, commit to it completely.</li> <li><strong>Practice consistency. </strong><br>I didn’t become a title-winning athlete overnight. It took consistent training and dedication to my technique to make this happen. The same was true when I launched a new career path. I worked consistently, dedicating myself fully to this goal. Create a plan for how you’re going to show up for yourself every day, to move one step closer to your career aspirations.</li> <li><strong>Hang with Trailhead, a lot. </strong><br>Make Trailhead a big part of your action plan! I spent at least 6 hours a week skilling up on Trailhead when I was building my expertise and preparing for certs. That sounds like a lot, but Trailhead’s <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/gamification-platform/" target="_blank" rel=" noopener">gamified platform makes learning fun and engaging</a>. Trailhead is also something I keep coming back to, so I stay <a href="https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/trails/sf_release_prep?&utm_source=salesforce&utm_medium=blog-360&utm_campaign=trailblazer_blog&utm_content=ts_oct21_amanda-ouedraogo&icid=SFBLOG:tbc-blog:7010M0000025ltGQAQ" target="_blank" rel=" noopener">updated on the latest innovations</a> and grow my expertise for my current role.</li> <li><strong>Connect, connect, connect.</strong> <br>I still keep in touch with members of the ParisCode community. It feels like a family. We supported one another and grew together as we set out on our tech journeys. It’s so nice to have a group of people you can relate to and rely on for help and guidance.
