Hi all. I took 2-3 years off in 2012 to teach myself programming. I learnt basic Javascript & Python with some Django. I don't have a Computer Science (CS) degree so I never applied for a job because I always thought I still had lots to learn and most jobs say a CS degree is required. In 2015 I had to stop my learning to find a real minimum wage job as I needed to support myself. I will never know now if I would have got a python job had I applied. It's now december 2017, so I haven't touched programming in 2 years. I've forgotten most of what I learnt now. :( I'm now financially secure to give programming another go but I don't know how I feel about relearning everything I forgot. Is it's worth it? What are your thoughts?
Can I get a junior programming job without a CS degree? When do you know you're ready to start applying for jobs? How can a self learner ever know? should I have applied for some jobs back in 2015 when I was still studying? What are your opinions on my situation? Is learning Python all over again worth it without a CS degree? would I be wasting my time? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
