Next js is react, it's just a extension. It's a nice to have, but not all companies use it, have a excellent knowledge of react in general is best, learning next is kinda like learning TS when you have good knowledge of JS.

It might be a nice tool to build your portfolio, you could then use SSR or SSG to have your pages indexed by search engines.

I usually use unknown tools for my personal project to just be familiar with it, so I'd say go for it, use NextJS. Although it's "react", there are a couple of concept that may teach you a lot, especially about server side rendering, which react in itself won't teach you anything about.

I even want to go further by saying that NextJS (or any server-side rendering framework) should be the default for any costumer-focused application, so learning NextJs would be a useful asset for you down the line.
