I’m a software engineer with some years of experience, with a focus on the front end using JavaScript, React, after being laid off, I have been struggling to land any interviews and I have reached a point in which I’m exploring other career tracks within software development I have 2 questions, how much of a learning curve is there for someone who’s been a web developer wanting to transition to a service now developer role And my other question is, how is the current job market for service now developers? The current job market for front end, back end, full stack engineering is brutal to say the least as many positions are being offshored and companies are doing so many layoffs
Thanks for making these videos. They are very helpful. I am already a SNOW developer at a junior position now but don’t have a CS background. Can you please do some videos or suggest somewhere I can learn JavaScript coding please.
If you haven't looked into it, freecodecamp was a phenomenal learning experience for me when i first began learning programming. It starts with the basics and includes an interactive console. The html, css, and JavaScript courses are all useful for a servicenow developer wanting to learn some fundamentals that may not be covered with the servicenow specific training the servicenow developer instances include.
Very interesting. I'm about to kickoff a ServiceNow Developer series where the focus will be JavaScript! Lots of people have been asking for the same. Keep an eye out, and thanks for being part of the channel!
Very professional video. Thank you. I have (too) many years as a Microsoft (C++ / C#) developer. How hard would the transition to Servicenow development be? E.g. how long does it take to become productive?
I don't think it would take you long at all. As an experienced developer, you have most of the hard stuff already mastered (logic skills, communication skills, problem solving skills, etc). If you want to develop on the SN platform, you will be working primarily with JavaScript, which won't be difficult for you. I'd focus on learning your way around the platform and UI and from there I think opportunities and areas of interest will jump out at you. Thanks for reaching out!
Dear Sir, I would like to express my appreciation for the informative video you have shared. However, I have a query regarding the functionality of the "Does not start with" and "Does not end with" operators in ServiceNow. It seems that these operators are not available out of the box. I am curious to know if there is a way to develop this feature or if there are alternative methods to achieve the same result.
Im 31 yrs old, till now im in Non-IT domain. Now i want to switch to IT domain. If I learn and get knowledge in servicenow developer or servicenow admin, will i get the job at this age or difficult to enter in IT field? Plz suggest
Thanks Jeff, I have a question that what is the future opportunities or scope for ServiceNow developers 5-10 years from now when compared to core web developer either frontend, backend or full stack developer? Please reply.
I love the outlook for ServiceNow. I think it depends on what you want to do. Low Code / No Code tools seems to be taking over quite a bit regarding to front-end development. I think it's great to keep your hands on the code, which is why I like ServiceNow. It provides the ability to do both, and the demand for those skills is great!
Qualified people is the keywords for servicenow jobs... I have 3 years of Servicenow Administration and Development. Certified with CSA and CAD. All these places that want to hire are just not hiring people without 10+ years and only want to pay about 80k to 90k. I have 8 years in IT and 3 years SN. Ive done the sole dev work and admin work for my current company but I also have to work Help Desk tickets since Im on our service desk team. Apparently this is a common practice for companies. I have had many companies who are wanting someone who has "more experience" in solely ServiceNow as their primary job. If thats the case how am I supposed to move out of my current position and solely work in SN as an admin or dev?
Yep. I know from personal experience what you are talking about! I do a lot with my Personal Developer Instance (PDI). At the very least, it shows a great deal of initiative when you can describe things you've done there.
Hi Jeff. Your video titled "What are ITIL & ITSM" was taken down by Axelos. In that 15 minute video you did a better job than what most certified trainers did in their hours long tutorials.
@@ServiceNowSimple Actually it's we who need to thank you for that video. It formed the basis of my wife's preparation for her ITIL v4 foundation certification. She must've watched your ITIL video over a dozen times (before it was taken down). She scored 40/40 which is pretty good for a new Mom who is perennially short on time. We now know where to head for any Service Now related certification preparations in the future. You are a wonderful teacher, Jeff!
I just discover servicenow this past weekend and i have been hooked. Took an aws bootcamp past september and finished in Dec. Got my cloud practitioner cert. Anyhow, i like the idea of Saas with servicenow. I'm curious about the fundamental course. I started following the learning plan for System administrator, and when i got to the system administrator course, they are asking for $500. Is that the same as the fundamental course? If i chose the RiseUp route, do they offer Online course learn at your own pace??
Hey i wanted to ask some questions regarding service now, i recently got a offer for service now trainee pos, but i dont see much coding part gioing aroud this platform, rather than drag and drop or low effort script replacement, can you suggest me if i should opt for this offer or not
I'd def recommend going for it. SN is a great career move and the platform provides lots of opportunities to use code and technology to solve business problems. Of course, it's not for everyone, but I think you can figure out pretty quickly if it's going to be interesting and rewarding for you.
Great vedio on a serviceNow developer journey . Thank u Jeff.
Thanks for your feedback and for being part of the channel!
Thank you so much. This was very helpful information, as always, organized and presented highly professionally.

Hi Jeff! I just finished the SN program last month. Are there ever any internships available for SN?
Hey Jeff, Thanks for the information. I am new to this and learning many things from your videos. Thanks again
Awesome, and thanks for your feedback!

Let me know if you are still having this issue and I'll dig a bit and see what might be happening.
@@ServiceNowSimple yes, still needed needed some clarification on this.
