Stages of learning JS?

Good day.
Last year, I set myself the goal of going into IT, namely, along the path "coder" -> "front end developer".
After studying HTML and CSS for half a year, I decided that the prora would already take up JS. I read a lot about how learning jQuery without knowing JS is bad and destructive. I read the book "Head First JavaScript Programming", now I'm dealing with learn.javascript.ru , but some topics are very tight (for example, "Getting and checking type") + it's not entirely clear where to use this when creating buttons, sliders and other swipes on sites.
Is it worth it to know all the topics perfectly if I want to find the first job with the position of "coder", or is it better to skim through all the features of JS and still take up jQuery directly and practice working with the DOM, and fill in the gaps in knowledge of JS according to my need?

I can recommend all O'Reilly books on js. There is also a wonderful screencast from Sorax. https://www.youtube.com/user/ArtSorax/
Next to study coffeescript, then AngularJS. Jquery is no longer worth taking on, it will soon go into oblivion, in my opinion.

I join the author above, I also want to recommend codeschool . excellent resource, but knowledge of English is required.
p.s. disagree about jQuery - it's "soon" in 5 years (if it comes). At the moment, almost all frameworks and libraries use it or its variations...

Ideally:
HMTL+CSS => Javascript => Jquery
