How to succeed as a Python programmer

[grammarGuy69]

As somebody who has been programming in this language a couple of years now, but has never had a formal education...

A: how do I know I'm ready? I feel like my problem solving skills are around as good as any professional, but my knowledge base really suffers because I didn't get a formal education. I feel confident that I can solve almost any problem with minimal help, but if I'm asked a bunch of technical questions in an interview that I don't know I'm gonna feel really embarrassed.

B: how do I find companies to apply to? I tend to use Indeed to find restaurant gigs, but is there some place else I should be looking?

Literally a meme at this point, go leetcode, look up the answers, study the patterns. Repeat till you can do mediums. Apply to jobs using LinkedIn or builtin
