How to Make the Jump into High TechA midcareer switch into high tech often involves several small steps, rather than one giant leap. Here's how to do it: -- Immerse yourself in technology at your current job, including working on the corporate Web site -- Assess your tolerance for risk, rapid change, and nontraditional organizations -- Seek an initial job that uses your expertise or industry knowledge -- Contact executive recruiters who work with tech companies -- Visit career-based Web sites, such as Career Mosaic and the Monster Board, which post nontechnology positions at tech concerns -- Use consulting as a stepping stone into the tech sector -- Realize that it may take more than one move to reach your ultimate career goal
