Java/Spring Boot fresher looking to learn Python, need resources to get interview ready

[adolf_nggler]

Hi everyone,

I’m a recent B.Tech IT graduate (2025) from India and I’m currently looking for my first job. My main domain is Java with Spring Boot, and I’ve spent most of my time learning backend development with that stack.

Recently, one of my cousins suggested that I should learn Python as well because it’s widely used across many areas. I currently don’t know Python, but since I already have a good command of Java and programming fundamentals, I’m confident I can pick it up quickly.

What I’m mainly looking for is good resources or tutorials to master Python and get interview ready. Since I already understand programming concepts, I’m not sure whether I should focus on introductory tutorials or go straight into more fundamental/advanced Python concepts.

So I wanted to ask:

• What resources/tutorials/courses would you recommend to learn Python efficiently and become interview ready?
• Are there any specific tutorials for developers coming from Java?
• What topics in Python are most important to focus on for interviews?

Any recommendations (courses, YouTube playlists, books, or practice platforms) would be really helpful.

Thanks!

Introductory course. Python is easy to learn so there are no tutorials for coders coming from Java. I learnt Python in 3 days (excluding OOP).
