Industry is heavily using frameworks like spring, hibernate, play for java development. Without that knowledge/experience, java knowledge is not worth much. But they can be learnt with some effort.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">As a programmer you should think about the programming paradigm, not the language. At the moment Functional programming has become the main stream.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">IMO, languages that supports Static typing + FP + OOP is the future.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">In Srilanka there's a big market for Java but in US & EU, Scala is very popular. Its also known as better java for a reason.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For mobile development, its kotlin, swift & flutter(Dart)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For frontend stuff, its typescript what ever the framework you use. Also typescript can be used with nodejs</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For big data stuff, its python and scala</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For systems programming stuff, its Rust, Go</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">This is just the tip of the iceberg. Dev-ops, Cloud/system Admin stuff, networking, Test automation, data science, UI/UX, IT security .etc are some other aspects of the IT industry. All of them are highly paid.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">If you have the will, all of the above can be learnt for free from YouTube, Coursera, Udacity .etc</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A professional certificate (eg: Java certification, cloudera certifiction for big data, kubernetes certification .etc) is worth more than a university degree. Choose 1 or 2 that you really like & stick with it. Don't chase everything. It will take few years to reach the professional levels but its worth the effort. Also be aware of new technologies. This field is changing very fast.</li> </ul></blockquote>
