Career Advice

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to start a career in software engineering and would love some advice on the essential skills I should focus on. I know there are a lot of areas within this field, and I want to make sure I’m prioritizing the right skills.

Some of the skills I am planning to learn include:

  • Web crawling and web scraping
  • Databases (SQL, NoSQL)
  • Front-end development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript frameworks)
  • Back-end development (Node.js, Django, etc.)
  • Cloud computing (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud)
  • Automation
  • Software testing and quality assurance

Are there any other skills or areas of knowledge that you think are crucial for a software engineer? Any advice on how to effectively learn and apply these skills would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!
