- Your previous professional experience and education count. Think about software you use in your professional field - someone tested that software. That person possesses knowledge of the field as well as the knowledge of Software testing.
- Age is not a problem. Many companies value stability of a QA person, her maturity, understanding of quality, tolerance to routine

Not everyone can be good testers, but smart people can be taught to become good testers.
Excellent Tester = above IQ + Experience + patience + analytical skills + common sense + ability to see big picture and how everything ties in together!
