      So I’m new to all of this and I’m taking a free online course through App Academy. They’re teaching me Ruby, SQL, Rails, JavaScript, React, MERN stack, Docker, GraphQL, and Data Structures and Algorithms. Are these goods sticks to learn if I wanna work at one of the gang companies? I love the the Bay Area( Silicon Valley) if that helps.

    What if you're an older developer who has worked dev jobs long ago, was out of the industry for a while, now trying to get back in? Do I still look for entry level? Am I too old (44) for bootcamps? I have general programming experience and the desire to learn but it seems like between overseas competition and 20-year-old bootcamp grads I'm too old to break back in. Is it true the employers are willing to have you learn on the job in the newer skills if you have all the background and professional experience? I also am looking more for contract work at this stage of my career.

    • @CoderFoundry
      @CoderFoundry  4 года назад +1

      There are not enough software developers world wide. So learning to code is something you should look into. Especially since you already have experience. Switching from vb or vb.net should not be too hard for you. Start with a c# online class and see how you do. Then if that goes well look into other learning options like bootcamps and see if that is an option.

    • @tomservo75
      @tomservo75 4 года назад

      @@CoderFoundry Thanks for replying. I'm an old school VB developer. My experience is in Access VBA, Visual Basic, SQL Server. I'm just beginning to learn C# and get object-oriented experience now. I'm used to procedural programming and thinking OO has been a struggle. I looked into bootcamps but the tuition is out of my range and I need to be working very soon, I'd sooner take on an entry-level position and work my way up while I get experience in the language. I keep hearing that employers are willing to take on programmers with experience and raw skills and have them learn on the job. But I haven't found that to be true. When applying to coder jobs I just hear crickets. I'll see a job description where they are looking for someone who can do everything under the sun. I don't think I stand a chance applying for those jobs even if some of those skills are "preferred."
      What I'm hoping to do is to find some contract work, simple stuff to start out and teach myself using online courses on the side.

I think bootcamps sound great but they seem to be made for college age people who can still live with their parents for a few more years while they get a foothold. I need to be working now and the tuition is unthinkable. I'd gladly take an online/remote part time contract/internship type situation and work my way up, a "re-entry level" position so to speak :)

    Should i focus on .NET or .NET Core ?

    • @bobbydavisjr007
      @bobbydavisjr007 5 лет назад +11

      So that is a tough question today because we are in the middle of a transition between the frameworks. If you are embarking on a new project the obvious answer is .NET Core. At Coder Foundry we are still teaching .NET MVC 5. Why? Because of the majority of employers still using MVC 5 for projects. However, that will change for us in 2020. We will be teaching .NET Core 3 using Visual Studio 2019. So if you are starting out learning today. I would lean towards .NET Core because the Microsoft examples will be written using Core. There are differences in the between how MVC is implemented not mention they also threw in Razor Pages.
      Bottom Line. Learn using MVC Core today. If you get a job with that has MVC 5 you will find the transition easier to the older framework.

      We do have a standard but most schools will take anyone and they would sign you up for an ISA or loan. We are not like that. We try our best to be a good actor in the space. So we make judgement calls based on our dev quiz and sometimes we reccomend a self paced option for applicants. Which is lower cost and less risk for the student.
