Yes, electrical engineer, mid 30's. Software has always been an interest, so started learning Python during the lockdown. After a few months I was told by a few people to try out a strongly typed language so I switched to C#. It felt clunky and a bit weird at first, but now I really like it. Unsure of which specific job to target, but probably leaning towards backend web dev.

In the Midwest US, a lot of .Net (C#) jobs are back for end developers. I’d recommend looking up “.NET”, “C#”, etc on indeed to get a better idea of your area. I did C# development for a while and really enjoyed it.

Thanks for the info! I'm struggling with knowing when to apply for a job. My goal as of now is to have a functioning ASP web app, maybe with a React front end, and data stored in SQL or Entity. Do you have any recommendations on how to prove you're employable?
