Work after the army: is it easy to recover and find a job?

Question

IT education

I am 22 years old. This summer I finish my studies: one education is not related to IT, the second is a bachelor's degree in Applied Informatics. I have been working for a year in a large company as a sysadmin, I am learning web programming, but so far I have only participated in one project. I'm going to be drafted this summer, and it makes me a little nervous. I have no money to pay for a ticket, since I have no family, and in graduate school I will not be useful in any way. Based on everything, I have 2 main questions:
Is it easy to recover in your activities after you have served and how do they look at candidates who have just come from the army?
If you have experience or any advice, I would be very grateful.

Answer 1

God forbid you to go somewhere abroad before the end of May and forget about the army.

Answer 2

OFF-topic: if you have not read it, then I advise .
It so happened that he did not serve, but worked / hired many times with people just after the deadline. It’s different for everyone - someone quickly joined both the work and the team - someone tried to establish their own “army” orders, but they did not find understanding in civilian life. Now the service is only a year - I don’t think that there can be a direct isolation from civilization.

Answer 3

The army in any case will be a big plus in the eyes of others, also in employment.
For a year of service, you will not feel a particular loss of knowledge and radical changes in your outlook.
May God serve you well.

Answer 4

Is it easy to recover in your activities

more up to you.
Do "exercises" - remember the sequence of operations for administration, remember what you learned on the web

how do they look at candidates who have just come from the army?

if you don’t tell yourself, no one will know.
If you get into tank / artillery or just close to the western border, try hard not to sign up for contract service. An accidental fracture is much better than other options

Answer 5

1) I wonder if you don’t have a family, you work and don’t have money to pay, which you don’t spend on supporting your family? For an IT specialist to pay 1-2 salaries to a company, which is nothing compared to the lost year, somewhere you are lying and impudently disingenuous.
2) Abroad is not the worst decision, a ruby ​​programmer recently came to live with us, due to the fact that they are actively being drafted into the army. Lives not overjoyed, here's a sportbike bought recently drives.

Answer 6

There is a saying in the army: "As I put on a harness, I grow dumber and dumber."
Even for a year in the army, if you do not touch the computer, you lose a lot: 1) You are a year behind in development from peers equal to you in abilities. In order to assess the gap, just imagine how much you have moved forward in development over the past year. 2) You are behind the development of technology. And IT is developing very quickly.
Physiological skills, such as typing speed, recover relatively quickly.
Candidates after the army are looked at normally if you fit in terms of competencies and personal qualities. Army men, all other things being equal, have 2 pluses: 1) They have better discipline 2) They are not drafted into the army :)
Tip: You won't believe it, but our army also has computers. And they also need to be managed. During communication in the military registration and enlistment office, press on your competencies and ask somewhere where there are computers. There are no guarantees. It all depends on the people in your recruiting office and on the order that came to them. But if you're lucky, you'll get in touch somewhere. I have two classmates who served this way.
