Hello all,
My name is Bella. I have a software degree but then ended up working in a bank for 11 years as a financial service representative. But coding was always something I was good at in college and my passion for problem solving has made me decide to switch my career to software.
My problem is that I do have a CS degree but no work experience in this industry. I am also currently working and I don’t want to quit my job to attend a bootcamp/college. I have started with a few courses on Python and working my way towards finishing it but have no idea what to study next.
I thought I would search for qualifications for a junior developer role on indeed but most of them require experience and ask for expertise in so many languages/concepts that I am getting confused. How can I get started at an entry level job in this industry with my current skills and I can keep learning/updating myself on new concepts on the job or on the side?
What I know :
C
C++
Python (in progress)
HTML, CSS & JavaScript (in progress on freecodecamp)
A little knowledge of algorithms and problem solving
If someone can give me advice on the steps I need to take to make me job ready, I would appreciate it.
