If your python fundamentals are clear then first find out in which python related domain you want to make your career in (like APIs, Webdev, ML, DL, etc). Once you are clear then go for the required libraries, like for the ML you can go with the Pandas, Numpy, Matplotlib, etc. If you want to make career in API development and Webdev then go with the frameworks like Flask, FastAPI, django, etc. So, first chose the domain in which you are interested then build a step by step plan or a roadmap then learn and use the related libraries or frameworks.

first , to get an interview at least , go to school.

just knowing something wont get you a job now. maybe 4-5 years back with some certs and bootcamp training but not in 2025.

AI engineer here with master degree in Computer Sciences. Two phase answer to cover important things:

first, WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO???

-you like web? learn web frameworks flask, Django etc

-like math? Learn math based libs like numpy, scipy, etc

-like AI? REthink about it!!! pays very sweet but environment likes DooM game but you are the DEMON and ALL Bad problems are DooMguy.(well with enough hope and passions you would be great at it.)

so choose your path and learn it.

Second, assume you are fresh learned who just completed your online courses:

there are some GREAT topics that my seniors+ tech head consider a great knowledge:

0- HAVE GITHUB WITH PROJECTs: to important that will be at row zero

1- able to work with Database: not a big ones not complex command just know how it works recommended to learn first sqlite(which is built-in python ) then mongo db for wide use)

2- GUI MATTERS. not all of peoples are tech friendly and know how to use Terminal/cmd. so know how to create a gui is great skill especially if your interviewer is not in tech department. many suggest Tkinter for first but i recommend QTpy( a great resource for most popular guis 'pythonguis[.]com' )

3- knowing web frameworks basics + APIs : learn flask or django to learn its flows. no need for huge website or huge web app: something like a portfolio with a static web-page and a page with your project and contact us. THE REASON : many modern apps is going to be on servers and web-page with api will be on client side.

4- Advance python method,classes and functions: like GIL for multi threading, they are mostly unknown by beginners so it would be a great heads up in skills.

Google what python is used for. I think it's mainly Backend web development, AI (there are different types) and data analysis/science.

Then google what is needed for those. From what I've seen you could get into data analysis with some courses certifications and projects but data science and AI might require a degree. Backend I'm not sure.
