I suppose this topic may be better served on another list. If so, please
advise.
I know of several young people in different industries who want to get
into software development.
They are college educated, fairly accomplished (management) and proven
in the retail industry, but seek a career change out of the retail
environment.
They foresee a long recovery with diminishing returns in retail and lack
of potential for advancement.
They have already embarked on self-education in Python but want real
world advice on what else might be required to at least gain an entry
level position in software development.
These are proven people with the ability to teach themselves subjects
outside their lanes and want advice on how to proceed.
I am too long in the tooth and removed from the human resources pursuit
to be confident in any advice I could offer.
So, I turn to this forum.
What to advise? What else besides Python can be absorbed? How to market
themselves? How to get that first job? Is now a good time?
