@qtguru how do I search for trending skills related to Python that Nigerians are getting/doing on Upwork? |
Programming / What Skill Should I Choose? by nobody01: 12:51am On Nov 17, 2021 |
So, I did build a project with JavaScript but I don't really like JS. I am trying to let go of Python, but I just can't make it happen. Now, I want to go into the freelance market preferably Upwork since there are devs on Nairaland with a lot of experience, so that they can serve as guides when I have difficulties. So far I've been taking DS and Algo classes to improve on that area. My issue now is choosing where to delve into with my Python skill. I feel Web Development is a bit saturated on Upwork. I have been looking into QA using Selenium, or making bots on Upwork. I'm currently avoiding full time jobs because I need to get my AWS certificate first, so that I can resume as a Solution Architect, DevOps or Cloud Engineer instead of a Backend Engineer. Please gurus in the house what's your suggestion? How do I know what's trending on Upwork for Python, so that I can learn it. Also, if there places where I could get Python related gigs, I would appreciate if they are mentioned. Qtguru, Tensazangetsu20, Karleb, spartan117, stanliwise |

@Qtguru, please what is your interns stack? Internship and Connect I am glad because I hooked up a Figma guy with a new small quick gig, and also the intern guy, I guided him to create an Upwork profile and I refered a job that came to me, He has finally gotten his first client to work with. I am glad this guy took all my advice, cuz I get depressed assisting people, because sometimes It feels like I am forcing people to do certain things. |

BlackSan: As Airsaylongcome would advise most of the times stick to your plan and play the long term game. If you are in love with Data Science, play the long term game and reap your reward in the future doing what you love. But if you need to get on your feet ASAP, then you can stick to Web Development but it won't also be as easy as you might presume. |
Programming / Re: Do We Have Female Devs On Nairaland? by nobody01: 10:15am On Oct 16, 2021 |
BlackSan: I feel you should make more research though before you delve into anything. The good thing about tech is you can fail and pivot at anytime when you feel something isn't right for you again. Today you may be learning Data Science and Web Development, tomorrow you will end up a Product Designer. Although, it's best to stick to one thing earlier on inorder to build a brand for yourself. Anyways, I wish you success in your endeavors. |
Programming / Re: Do We Have Female Devs On Nairaland? by nobody01: 12:09am On Oct 16, 2021 |
BlackSan: Little piece of advice. Try sticking to a particular stack, you can't be all at once. Maybe you can be a Full stack or better still a Data Scientist instead of both. You can also niche down and become a Backend or Frontend dev. |

ProfAmaben: I agree Udemy is really good, I hope to go back there to get my AWS course after learning JavaScript. I bought the course because it was what they used in teaching in an online boot camp I attended, and I thought it would be good but I have learnt from my mistakes. |

ProfAmaben: I once bought a course from Udemy when I started learning Python, but I abandoned it because I didn't like the explanation by Tutor. I ended up learning from Harvard's CS50 and The Net Ninja. I don't have intentions to be a Frontend Dev, I already write Django and I intend to continue on that path. I only want to add Node.Js to my skill set that's why I am learning JavaScript. |

tensazangetsu20: Hmm, I tried this while doing HTML and CSS but I failed when I tried it once at JavaScript, so I think I need some kind of guidance to pick up first then this can come. I am not adding what I will build from the tutorial to my portfolio due to the fact you stated (it's already random). Your contributions are always valuable, thanks. 1 Like |

Hello Gurus, I want to begin learning JavaScript mostly the OOP aspect since I already have experience with the basics. I am looking for a project based tutorial, so I can follow hands on. Any suggestions please? Qtguru, Tensazangetsu20, Karleb, spartan117, stanliwise |
Travel / Can I Go For A Masters Degree With A 2.2 Degree? by nobody01: 11:54am On Aug 14, 2021 |
Good morning all, it's my first time posting on this section. Please I need your suggestions and opinions. I have an issue that is seriously bothering me, I am a third year Computer Engineering student of a Federal University. The problem is my result has dropped from the 2.1, I was managing to a 2.2 my current CGPA is 3.07, and I even fear it may drop to a third class if I am not careful. Now the issue is I was advised to substitute my reading time and time for classes to focus more on my programming by my senior colleagues but it's adversely affecting my CGPA. I have already resolved that I may not graduate with a 2.1 again, because I have been busy with several gigs which are giving me a practical work experience and the pay is great for a student. But on the bright side my work resume has improved, and I am getting really juicy offers which will allow me to save up and eventually leave the country. The issue now is I want to go for my Masters Degree but, I don't know if I will be given admission in a Computer Science or Software Development related course due to my CGPA. Please if you have towed this part and you were successful, please share your experiences because this has been draining and stressing me for some time. I would like to apply to universities in Ireland, UK, Sweden, Canada, Germany, France, Netherlands, Austria, Finland, and South Africa but I am open to other suggestions as long as a permanent residency is guaranteed. Also, will the prospective universities overlook the CGPA if I have a good resume and work experience. Please I really need answers from the experts and those who have had similar experiences on the forum. PS: I am sorry for the long post but please bear with me. Thank you in advance for your contributions. |

Karleb: I have about the bolded a lot, in fact it was an argument on Twitter that only technical Devs should interview for technical roles and not HRs. I am also side learning React and some other Frontend skils(just the basics though to understand those I will be working with in future). Thanks for your contribution. 3 Likes |

Programming / Backend Devs How Do You Advertise Your Skills? by nobody01: 10:02pm On Jun 08, 2021 |
I am a Django developer new to Backend development. I know Frontend and UI/UX Devs advertise their portfolio site but for backend it isn't the same or let me say I haven't seen it. So, Backend Devs in the house how do you advertise yourself potential employers or for potential gigs? Stanliwise Qtguru Karleb |
