What is a good route to take, to get from learning to code, to a full-time junior developer?

• Understanding Programming for Providing IT Software Solutions for Clients.
• You can start from Programming Basics with C or C++.
• Next Step will be to make choice of a domain.
  • Java
  • Dotnet
  • PHP
  • MEAN
  • Android App Development
  • Python
  • Big Data & Hadoop
• As per domain, You can go for respective modules.
  • Java – Core Java, Swing/Applet, Advanced Java, MySQL/Oracle, JSP-Servlets, Spring/ Hibernate, Web Services/Api
  • Dotnet – C#, SQL, WinForms, WPF, ASP.net, MVC, Web Services/WCF/Api
  • PHP – HTML5,CSS3,JS,Jquery,PHP, MySQL, Ajax, JSON, Larvel/CodeIgniter, Web Services/Api
  • MEAN Stack – Mango DB, Express js, Angular JS, NodeJS
  • Android App Development
    • Core Java, Advanced Java, Android (Android Studion)
    • C#, SQL, Web Services/Api, Android (Xamarine)
  • Python
    • Shell Scripting
    • Web Application Development
    • Machine Learning
  • Big Data
    • Core Java, Advanced Java, Big Data & Hadoop Technologies
  • Basic understanding of Concepts,
  • Development of Small Components,
  • Developing Projects on each module/Product,
  • Basic Understanding & implementation of Testing,
  • Deployment in Local/Online/Cloud Environment

Congratulations on your decision to learn coding.

There are many programming languages, but mastering C, C++, Java and .Net along with good understanding of Python would be good first milestone. 

However, I would also suggest that you mention these technologies on your resume and start applying for available trainee, internship, and junior programmer jobs. This will give you the understanding of what kind of questions are asked to clear the job interviews and even if you don’t make it in the beginning, you will soon crack at least one job or internship. 

Next step trip would be to ask your trainers for good projects which you can work on your own or in partnership with other students. Pick-up at least a couple of good projects and take them to completion. Adding these projects would enhance your resume and also position your candidature better.

Last step is to not give up on learning and improving. Let me know when you have acquired some skills, I would be happy to help you get some projects and / or internships.

All the best!
