<human>: Hello, kind people. So basically I'm a 24-year-old chef. I'm on a degree course in my second year(BSc Applied Computing degree. 

So I have gained an HNC in Software Development (will gain an HND after the second year) and a vendor certificate. Plus most importantly I love what I'm learning. I absolutely love the whole debugging code and trying to get it to work. It makes it difficult to sometimes go into work, to be honest.

My question is I don't know if my current job has many transferable skills related to Software Development which actually scares me. Do you think this is so? Also, would you in my position try to leave the world of cheffing for a more techy job before looking for an internship/future Software job? (My only worry with this option is it's quite difficult to find any local jobs in admin/helpdesk work and I don't feel qualified at all for even the lowest tier of IT positions).

I'm going through local software companies and emailing them about the prospect of getting some work experience days at a few them. My course has a mandatory summer work experience between 3rd and 4th year but I thought it'd be good for me and my CV to get some before looking for internships. 

Plus over the next few months, I've made a detailed list of goals and aims when it comes to coding and that to try and build a little portfolio of programs. Also, I've booked an appointment at my universities careers centre to discuss my CV and gain their insight.

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: Worried I have no skills anyone will want and at 24 it'll be a hard to slog to get those skills.
