I have been learning JAVA for almost two years before I got regestered into the CODEGYM site, therefore I think that i have enough skills to apply for a junior developer job. In fact I know about java basics, OOP (Abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism...), and a little of GUI (graphic user interface), on top of JavaScript, CSS3 and html5 (good level).
But the problem is that I am not old enough (I am 17 years), and I don't have any official degree. I need some tips please.
If you have all these skills then create projects. Build your favorite website/app/software from the ground up. Everyone can learn the basics but companies and employers want to know can you use it to build things, if you run into a problem do you know how to solve it, do you test all your code, etc. Make sure the projects aren't the easy todo/calculator/etc. app either. Projects can take place of work/school/degree experience cause it will show that you have the skills to do the job.
Thanks for this precious tip.
actually , now I am intending to start the "euler projects ", because there are a lot of interesting stuffs and challenges right there .
