What to read to put knowledge in order?

Question

coworking

Of course, my question is a little strange, but it's interesting to know :) I'm going to go to Moscow to work after graduation.

I am finishing IT at our local polytechnic (KuzGTU Faculty of Mechanical Engineering)

in which area I will go to work (web dev, 1C or designing some kind of IS), I still don’t know, and I think the skills in each of the areas are at the level "with the world on a string." What would you recommend to tighten up? what do they ask at interviews and what should you pay attention to now?

if you are hiring me... what questions would you ask me?

hope for understanding :)

Answer 1

English language.

Answer 2

1. stop inserting emoticons through the word ;)
2. open a site with vacancies, find something that suits you in terms of salary and conditions.
3. ask specific questions "advise good literature on the topic ...."

Answer 3

Unsubscribe as recently moved to Moscow.
For a comfortable move, you need 120 thousand rubles. These are trips to interviews (in my case, one thing), 30 + 30 thousand to a realtor and for the first month of renting an apartment, sometimes you will have to spend money on a deposit. To buy all sorts of little things for a rented apartment and live the first month.
I left university in my third year. Looking at those who graduated and did not work at that time, I am very sad. They sell books and do other non-professional activities.
In general, the value of a person who just sitting exactly graduated from a university and did not work anywhere is very small.
Its projectors are also rubbish, not convertible. Judging by your uncertainty, by the end of the university you never learned how to program normally. It's too late to sit and read books and do something.
My advice:
March to work now! For 20 hours a week, for 30, for any money in any studio, the main thing is not in the public sector. Right now in my city. Run to work. Otherwise, it will only get worse. Stop theorizing and improving your skills. Need to work. You have no idea at what angles the same it will open for you at work.
I'm serious. This is a real problem for many people. What do I need to learn to do. AND NOTHING!!! Do everything, and it will immediately become clear what _specifically_ needs to be learned. And it’s better to do this not in your project where there are no deadlines and deadlines, but at work.
And if you work for a year in your city, then you will have something to discuss with Moscow employers.
Sorry for the tone of the message. I want to help you and I am very sorry to see former classmates who, after graduating from high school, sell books. In reality, everyone who started working from the 2nd 3rd 4th year develops and works normally, and those who received a diploma only asked the question: “and who should I work with?” do shit or get a meager salary.

Answer 4

I would advise you to choose one thing, and not chase several hares, read a little, it is important to understand and answer questions that do not always follow the pattern. And it’s even more important to understand what you are doing, because even if you are a super theorist, in addition to theoretical issues, there are also practical ones, and communication with the technical director (or similar technically savvy people) who will figure out the theorist at once.
Choose one industry that seems most interesting to you and practice a little, even at home for yourself.

Answer 5

read design patterns.

Answer 6

Try to answer for yourself - what is your character, what are you inclined to.
For example, you are more likely to explore and discover something new, or sit and hone technology. Are you interested in being in demand all over the world, or to be kept in one place, at least "because there are no people in this area."
Based on this, I can advise something more sensible (you can in PM), since I myself went from the developer to the team leads / managers, I have my own company, I am constantly studying (now in graduate school), I have knowledge and experience in design ... and now recently had to write under 1C.
There is no ideal recipe, at least, because all people are different and it is impossible to discard our desires / possibilities.
The only thing I can say unequivocally is foreign languages, preferably more than one.

Answer 7

I think that theorizing will not give you an answer to the question - what are you really interested in. It may very well be that you still do not even know what exactly will interest you in the work. A lot of things may seem speculatively interesting, but when confronted with reality, impressions can change.
Therefore, the best option in my opinion would be to try yourself in those areas that are interesting and develop in the one in which your interest will stand the test of reality and time.

Answer 8

Take and write some small real project. When applying for a job, it will be much more useful to show that I did such a thing, that's how it happened, that's how the problems were, that's how I solved it. And there will be benefits, and more specific questions will appear.
Well, if you just read, read Introduction to algorithms, Design patterns and English!

Answer 9

before you go to Moscow, try to work remotely
to live in Moscow, at least you need at least 50,000 rubles. per month

Answer 10

What's stopping you from combining? there is even a small life hack - for those already working in the profile, the Ministry of Education and Science gives indulgences for admission / study. ;)
I completed my studies after moving to the MSC, at a part-time school. showed the authorities a notice of the session from the university and so went to the session. and the rest was not great, and in the hands of a diploma of completed higher education.
even if there is no desire to “learn to acquire knowledge and manage it” (as the goal of higher education is characterized), then a diploma will be a very useful argument when looking for a job.
