Hello Sajha Users.
I would like to thank you all in advance for any suggestion. I really appreciate your input.
I completed my Associate in science recently and currently taking some other classes in Computer Science. I took some of the c++ and python classes. Now I'm feeling like going for bachelor degree is tiresome since i'm 30+ years.So I'm thinking of joining a good Consultancy that you all recommend.
as for My background I have bachelor degree in Business from back home. Unfortunately I couldn't complete my Masters degree because of DV lottery that I got selected few years back. I have been working odd jobs and go to school. Now i'm bored with it. So decided to join a good consultancy. It is painful working while learning. I have applied for the internship for the computer science, but unfortunately didn't get lucky.

Now I need your suggestion to find and select a good consultancy specially for software development job or any other IT related job . And also if you all can give me suggestion which language to choose to get into the market and stay strong. What are other preparation you all suggest? Is there particular training or certification should I go for? How do I craft my skill to get into the IT market?

Looking at your profile, you have some plus points and also some areas that are not in your favor.

Associate in Science? may be elaborate more. Most companies require Bachelors degree min for good pay and position. But you have some exp with Programming Languages which is good. I can recommend area that I know a lil about. and that is database, data warehouse, analytics, machine learning. May be start with

being a data engineer:- this will include, ETL, datawarehouse, SQL server, Oracle, Informatica, Talend etc..

These are keywords in a Data Engineer's Resume. Research more on these.

Python is a powerful language and is on demand ahile. so find a position through consultancy where you can hone this skill. also learn javaskript, API calls, some web technologies-html etc...

Unfortunately you might still have to suffer through Consultancys placing you on random projects which we all went through. but in that course of time you can still emerge as a skilled IT professional.

IT is vast. here are the major segments within it as i know it. I am sure the IT gurus here know far more.

a) admins

b) Testing/QA

c) Data Engineer

d) Network Engineer

e) Business Analyst/BI Analyst/Program Manager/Project Manager

f) Developer - Java...

Based on yur current skill-set c,e, or f might better suit you. but go for c is my reco. it will still be a long ride my friend. Begin with a consultancy that trains you for being a Data Engineer. work with them for about 2 years and then you can command your own salary. Focus on the positive, you dont need sponsorship, thats a blessing. hope this helps. good luck.

First of all, I apologize to all for replying late. I was busy in exams that I couldn't check the Sajha for couple days.

@autmn I haven't got your inbox message yet. Hoping to see your message soon. And thank you much for your input, I think that helped to bring this post alive and got other responses.

@16andcounting
Associate in science? may be elaborate more most companies require Bachelor degree min for good pay and position: I'm currently enrolled second semester junior at university enrolled as Computer science major.
@machine learning stuff: I'm thinking about it. Hopefully I will get into that class in my senior semester.
I'm also self learner of Java which I think little vast for me right now learning all the libraries and all. Currently busy with home work and all that. Kinda frustrates me that I have to take all different kind of language like javaskript, php in school. I hate being jack of all master of none. That is one reason I want to join the consultancy that way I can have real world experience.

Unfortunately you might still have to suffer through Consultancy placing random project which well all went through: In my opinion, It will be worth suffering than taking all the crap classess like marketing and management.
@ last, That was big time big helpful tips for me.I really appreciate it. I really mean it. I will consider your suggestions.
