Choose Your Own Quantum Adventure 3: A Personalized Career Guide For The Quantum Computing Industry

Quantum computing is an exciting field, and a career in quantum computing ought to feel like an adventure. But, a traditional page-by-page book doesn’t feel all that adventurous, and a career involves making choices. Therefore, this quantum career quide is styled as a choose-your-own-adventure (CYOA) book. With CYOA books, you read a little bit of the story, and then you choose how the story unfolds by turning to the designated page. With Choose Your Own Quantum Adventure (CYOQA), you are presented with questions, and your choices determine the content you will read next.

• Do you need an overview of quantum computing?
• Would you like to read tutorials, books, and blogs?
• Do you need to further your formal education?
• Do you want a new job?
• Are you considering investing in quantum technologies? 

This book is obviously intended to invoke nostalgia in anyone familiar with choose-your-own adventure books. If you’ve never encountered one, I hope this book feels original and fun. After all, quantum computing is way too interesting for anything written about it to be boring.

CYOQA2 is a minor update. Based on recommendations, some sections have additional links and some text has been changed.

CYOQA3 is another minor update. I could tell you what those updates are, but if you have CYOQA2 you could make a game out of trying to spot the differences yourself....
