[GLLUG] Career guidance request

[Stanley C. Mortel]

Hey group!  A friend of mine is coming to see me tomorrow thinking about 
a career change into the IT field somewhere.  His background is quite 
limited at the moment, but he is trying to find a direction.  He is 
coming from a financial background - financial planning side of things.  
Any thoughts on what's hot right now (i.e., needed, as in he might get 
hired once he develops the skills)?  My inclination is to talk to him 
about web design and database administration.  Any helpful insight would 
be vastly appreciated.

Stan
