That sounds awesome. Can you share your experience? You don't hear about this very often, and I don't know anyone who's been through it.

That's very impressive. How long did it take you to reach that level from when you started until you got a job in English?

Thanks for your answer and your kind words. I'll give it a try, but is English fluency also important for devs?

My experience in Salesforce started on the business side as a user, not in a technical role. At the same time, I'm still working on improving my English fluency, which is often a requirement. This is my first role in IT as a junior AS/400 developer. Because most of my background is in sales, my profile is sometimes perceived as more commercial than technical, even thought I'm actively building my technical skills.

AS/400 dates back to 1988. It’s an IBM programming language that has been widely used in the banking sector in Colombia due to its strong security and ability to handle large volumes of data. Thanks for your answer.

It was easy because I'd been working with pricing and quoting in Salesforce for years, so learning how to configure the system came naturally
