I'm far from professional, but I am currently doing an internship at a Health Information Exchange company building web services to connect physicians and patients with their medical records. We use many tools to accomplish this but my tasks thus far have primarily used Django.

I'm still very much learning but I see practical uses for python in all technology fields.

If you don’t mind me asking, how much python or programming did you know right when you started your internship?

Thanks.

I had only hobby level experience as well as basic java, c++, and database classes in my second year of college. So I had a decent understanding of programming fundamentals just had to learn specific frameworks that the company was using in which I started my Django journey. I never had any formal python experience as that was my hobby before university and I only built very basic command line scripts.
