When looking to break into the technology industry, non-tech persons can be the secret weapon for a tech company because we bring different perspectives and skills to the team which can have a positive impact on the product.

What you’ll learn

By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:

  • Identify the top transferable skills from Design and Business Management to Software Testing
  • Be prepared to use these transferable skills to improve software quality
  • How designers and management team members can impact software quality
