Why did we decide to create a course which is 100% focused only on learners from India? Easy answer. CodeGym is here if you need us. Or I’d rather: CodeGym goes to India because the Indian IT market needs you and hundreds of thousands of Java developers now and in the future! Thinking of getting a job in IT? Let’s talk a bit about the best career opportunities and the most thoughtful way to reach a real competitive advantage in the demanding Indian IT market by learning with CodeGym.

The State of IT in India: Why It’s a Great Idea to Get Tech-related Profession

You might be familiar with a common struggle of many experienced working professionals. Feeling that your career is at a standstill. Understanding that the salary cap isn’t satisfying at all. Seeing people rush into large IT companies as programmers to do an impactful job and get an impressive paycheck. Meanwhile, you’re interested in tech and believe that you CAN become, say, a software developer. And, of course, you CAN get a job as a rookie programmer in your labor market. What could go wrong? Nothing, actually. India is the world's IT outsourcing hotspot with a 25-year history and is undoubtedly a leader in the global outsourcing segment. There are dozens of huge IT outsourcing companies here, like Infosys, with over 270 000 employers and $13 billion in revenue annually. Whooping number! But still, the primary issue for these companies is the lack of qualified specialists: software developers, QA engineers, data analysts, etc. At the same time, the startup market in India is growing, and the economy is digitalizing at full speed. In 2021 alone, India launched 14,000 new startups that raised $42 billion. They are in desperate demand of IT specialists, too. Last year, the revenue of the information technology and business process management industry in India reached the whooping 194 billion dollars, showcasing a steady annual growth despite the pandemic. The experts believe that India will become the world's leader in developing and distributing digital products in no time.

The Most Sought-after Professions in Indian IT: Consider Java Developer as the Best Option

According to reports, the IT services industry in India created over 500,000 new jobs in 2021/22. With the rapidly growing outsourcing & startup market, Metaverse, Web3, and the upcoming Industry 4.0, the demand for IT professionals, especially – data engineers and programmers – is high. The increasing number of job openings in tech leaves the door open for newbie developers – university graduates and those who decided to gain a new profession via boot camps and online course programs. According to the Naukri report, Java shares the top position with Python, one of the most in-demand languages for many years. The salary prospects of Java & Python developers are almost even: making up to 20+ LPA as an experienced developer is possible. But the demand for Java developers is almost twice as high as for Python developers. You can quickly check the number of job openings for Java and Python specialists and see the difference. Java programmer has lots of options. Server-side applications for finance and big data need Java. Android programs, web applications, embedded systems, and scientific applications need Java, too. Anyways, it’s easier to tell where you don’t need Java than the opposite!
