Matias’s Answer

No Noah. If you know to program, then it will be more easy to find a job about that because you have a Degree on that. The most important thing is that you have a "strong" knowledge on what you want to work, not only to show the interviewer that you have the knowledge, is to show that you know that really well so if you are on a project that is a little "hard"/complicated/difficult/requires great knowledge about that programming language you will be able to pass it like jumping a little rock.


Apart of that you will be able to learn new languages because you have the base knowledge about programming to learn (fast and great in quality) a new language that you will have to know to work with in your job.


One more thing, maybe at first, if you didn't learn very well a (lot of) new language(s) you will have the knowledge to where to start to learn that language, what to search for, algorithms and that sort of things. Is like been a student, you know in what type of books to search for certain type of info.


I hope this answered your question.

Software Engineers are in high demand and have been for the last 30 years or so. That is why the coding bootcamp has become so popular, because they work and are able to get people into the technology field. Compared to so many fields it is very easy to get a job. It is also an industry that is bound to grow so there will be jobs available for a long time.

Kelvin’s Answer

This a great field and you absolutely will find a job especially if this is something that you enjoy. In my opinion, it's one of the few fields where politics play less of a role. It's more about what you know as opposed to who you know. Focus on what it is that you enjoy doing the most and chase that whether it is front end or back end. Also, I highly recommend taking and coding boot camp. I've heard Georgia Tech has a great 3 or 6-month program. You will learn a lot but it's also a great opportunity to network as well.
