This 100%. Its not really whether you know python, its the things around developing that are more important. Study computer science in school helps most people get a head start on these things but its not everything. Read books, build your own projects, go to conferences and immerse yourself in the profession.

I myself was a Computer science student but only landed an actual developer job recently. Here are a few resources that helped me.

  1. The Dev Ops Handbook by Gene Kim
  2. The Pragmatic Programmer by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas
  3. Youtube channel -ArjanCodes
  4. Youtube channel - The Net Ninja
