My name is Manuj Aggarwal. I've been in this industry for about 20 years. And even though I have been awarded multiple patents in cutting it feels like machine learning even though I am teaching 90000 students across 190 countries. And even though I have interviewed more than 5000 engineers in my career.

The more demand the market had for these niche skills the higher the price because naturally the supply was limited along with the price or the salaries or contracting rates. There was also more job security because it was not easy to replace engineers with niche skills. I learned to bootstrap my career by getting into these niche and high demand areas of technology.

In This Episode You Will Learn:

• How I started my Tech career
• Challenges in my career
• Niche skills
• How to get your dream job
