A little bio about myself:<p>Personal: I am a computer science student from India.Completed my undergraduation from a very unknown local college in May 2014.Being from a local college pushes me behind, having no good exposure of software engineering.<p>Projects/Work Experience: Last Summer, I had done a remote internship on game development. Developed a web-application(game) using web technologies. Apart from being intern for 2 months and developing websites for the college technical fests, I have no work experience or any perfect knowledge regarding a particular domain.<p>Why unemployed?: I started a startup in my final year of undergraduation and failed miserably. I have no time left to prepare for Interviews or sharpen my programming skills. I thought of to first become expert regarding a particular domain like Web Development, Machine Learning and then apply for a job.<p>Realization: After 4 months of doing some web development, Machine Learning, MOOC's, reading books,realized that i am no where near perfect in either of them. It just been waste of valuable 4 months of time. I feel work experience is more valuable than reading books alone in home. So, I decided to work on my skills in the coming days/weeks/months to land into a job and then work on to become expert.<p>Skills: Cpp - Solved around 300 problems in various online judges(ID:kp25). Python - beginner. Javascript - Developed websites, web-application during Summer Internship.<p>What are the do's and dont's that i should follow in the coming months, What further skills or languages should i learn that helps me in getting close to land into a job?<p>Willing to relocate for job and join immediately. Ready to learn any further skills if required for the job. If you do think i'm good enough for the job role you've considering please Contact me at the following email id: prasanth[dot]25k[at]gmail[dot]com
It looks like you want to be perfect, but you won't, especially not alone and in a small period of time.<p>Plus it's not like there is a fixed level that you reach and then it's done, you are a master at [insert something here]. People learn everyday, especially in development, and the "right way" today is not the same as tomorrow nor yesterday.<p>I think you can land a job, I see no reason why you couldn't, but don't expect yourself to become an expert without actually working in a/multiple real(s) project(s) imo.
Have you got any code examples?<p>Reading through your little biography, you don't have a lot of experience so you're unlikely to hit the ground running, I'd have worries about giving you a project...<p>On the other hand, you seem like you're a keen learner and the breadth of topics you've mentioned is positive. Keep a positive mental attitude and highlight some code examples so someone willing to take a punt can better assess your current abilities.
He prasanth,
So we spoke privately by email, and we agreed to do the whole job finding process publicly for everyone to see that it works. If it fails and I walk away I pay you USD $1000. If you walk away or fail to take the steps then the deal is null and void. If you reply to this commment publicly then we have a deal and we will start today.<p>Thanks
Zubair
