im 29 yo. recently lose my job, and thinking about use some of my saving money to school for programming, for the sake of not being homeless, but idk consider of my age, will it helps me in the future to survive if i have a degree on programming.
pardon my english
You’re young. I switched jobs and profession twice already. For me, it was the other way around and back again. Came from programming (10 years) then Linux adminstration (2 years) and decided to do Geography. Studied it and the programming skills helped me there, too.
There is always something you can take with you to the next job or profession.
I wasn’t lucky to get a job where I can use my Geography studies so I am now almost 2 years in web programming. I did not have much experience in the field, but I found a place where my Linux adminstration knowledge is useful and I improved web backend programming skills (PHP) on the job.
Soft skills count, too. Reliablity, ability to work in a team. Recruiters look for those things.
And btw. I got my Linux knowledge initially only from personal unpaid studies and projects in my free time.
wow, from what i read i believe you’re amazing person, thanks for sharing sir… it means a lot
