    you can push and push and have nothing 21:50😭😭that was literally me right there it took me exactly 16 months full-time going through a self-taught route until I just realised that this thing of pushing with Java ain't gonna fly and wasn't getting exactly where I wanted too many difficulties& obstacles that's when I stopped pushing cut all the background noise from people just do my own thing shift to data stuff learn other stuff at that point I learned that low demand means low comp but high demand means very high comp, started with what I had the first couple of years only made what a junior dev makes in a month but in over 2years but I was happy that it's working/progress kept on going but it was slow in the beginning it took a while but now I make almost triple of annual senior dev in a month all tax-free even I no longer do hands-on programming & technically just as you said sometimes you can push and maybe something happens..

    What is your thought on alx data science, I'm thinking of doing it this year. I was at UJ, and I got academically excluded December 2023 in BSc in Computer Science and Informatics Extended. Java(Computer Science)and Web Development(Informatics) hit me hard, even though i was repeating them last year (Third year of the extended program, more like second year of the main degree)😅😅.
    I am also looking for at least job with the knowledge I have( C++, Visual Basic, SQL, little knowledge on Java and Web Dev as I failed them) but the aim is upskilling till data science or cyber security.

      NQF 4 that’s equivalent to matric. You can try getting employment with a portfolio etc but it wont be easy. Adding short courses will be beneficial.

  • @therightseven7
    @therightseven7 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    about the self-taught part in your view would it be accurate to say if you are self-taught it's better to be self-taught in web development at the front end due to the nature of the front end compared to other roles since it's better to learn online & build a portfolio very very straight forward most of the time it's HTML, CSS, Js...etc? when I look at other roles it's hard to imagine self-taught similar to this without an internship it's more and more of a myth than a reality
    edit: Great advice in the end

    • @BMTVSA
      @BMTVSA  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's not really about favoring front-end. It's more about doing what you enjoy and what's in demand. Both backend and web development are straightforward too. For instance, just like front-end needs HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, backend for a C# dev might require C# and its .NET frameworks, plus SQL. So, it's not like backend is less organized than front-end.

    • @therightseven7
      @therightseven7 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@BMTVSA thanks for responding I'm thinking of switching careers from the financial world to C# and .NET development. if that is the case then I will opt backend with C# because I've been coding in C# for six years, starting when I was just 14. Coming from a background in C++, picking up C# felt like a walk in the park, although my experience was mostly in game development as a hobby and just doing it for kicks. Now, I'm considering shifting to web development with .net, which feels like a whole new world and have a long way to go. But given the strong demand for C# and .NET in my area and opportunities, it seems like the right choice for me, even if it means opting to teach myself through online courses. so will see how it goes
