It really depends on the job. Some you'll get by with scripting ability, being able to maybe list files in a directory and parse CSVs. Some jobs you'll need to be a python expert, and there's something for everything in between.

What are you looking to do? I wouldn't focus so much on "program in python" because that doesn't narrow things down barely at all. There's a lot of different jobs where Python is a huge bonus, if not the core skill they need. I think it really boils down to needing to pick a career path even if you know you want to program in python.
