[r0mm3L]

hello, I'm network infrastructure engineer by profession.
I'm thinking of shifting into programming career.
Is there plenty of opportunities here in cebu who will consider an inexperience like me or willing to give a chance to give me internship or whatsoever.

about learning the language. don't worry I have resources.

if there's an existing thread, please lead me to it.

my final decision will be in 4th quarter of 2017. whether I will shift into this career or not.


I'm also willing to considering other languaes such as C# or .net

if you're wondering why python? and why am i planning to shift? let me know if you're willing to know why eheh

bro why with the sudden change?

simple lang. naa koy gi bati sa lower back karon. bawal na nako ang heavy lifting.
kong mo padayon kog trabaho sa infra, naay possibility nga mag heavy lifting. although dili tanan higayon. kong mag trabaho kog outsourcing kanang more on remote2 lang kana dili ko mag heavy lifting. what if system integrator or IT consulting ako trabahoan. kana mag heavy lifting ko.

learning python is hitting two birds at the same time. some of the network engineers and sysads right now are learning programmers such as python and perl to automate their tasks. devops also have programming skills. somehow wala pa nako gi let go ang pagka infra specialist. lets say, after 4 yrs of learning programming, then dili ra d i ko mo biya sa infra nga job. dli ra gihapon ma usik akong oras learning programming.

then mas ganahan pod ko python kay mas readable compare sa uban language

You would probably be sorry about that change, your current position much more interesting and fascinating anyway on many possible reasons out there for many many terms please. Do help me with that matter anyway thoroughly I would combine both.

I would recommend you to switch, as Python developers are very needed at this moment. It's a growing niche, especially when you're looking at the amount of remote jobs available. This number is constantly growing, indicating that anyone looking for such a job will be able to find a good-paying position without spending much time.
