You’re probably thinking that it’s difficult and only for some…

Anyone working in IT can and should learn PowerShell Scripting and improve their career. PowerShell is considered a basic skill to have these days.

I’ve done it myself – at the age of 29, after a local PowerShell meetup, I started learning the language. I was working as the IT Support Engineer at the time and had no programming experience.

After 10 months, I got my first official scripting assignment. Four months later I got headhunted for a better-paid job where automation was my main responsibility.

It took 15 months from my commitment to learn PowerShell Scripting to getting a better job.

But I never coded before!

And so did I until I was 29. The only moment I ever wrote code was back in high school. We were taught Pascal and were focused on rewriting mathematical equations into console applications. That was one of the most painful classes of my life…

That changed when I heard about PowerShell, the language created for Sysadmins. Automating business processes and day-to-day tasks is deeply satisfying.

I did end up learning how to program, and doing what I liked, it changed my career. It can change yours too.

So I will learn PowerShell Scripting, and then what?

Being able to automate business processes is a great job security perk. You become a force multiplier – something that takes your colleague hours, you will be able to do in minutes.

Think user account provisioning. Software deployment. Annoying maintenance tasks which nobody wants to do, over the course of late Saturday night.

You can stay and let your PowerShell Scripting knowledge grow your career organically.

Or you can then expand your skills to other languages and tools, the possibilities are endless.

PowerShell Scripting is like walking through a door to a house. Only to realise, there are many more doors you can open.

The choice is yours.
