Need career advice
I am working in a service based for a multinational brand. However i am not satisfied with the job, learnings and salary.. I am having 2 yoe on a cms called Drupal. My work mostly revolves around site building which requires no coding at all. Its very basic. But I want to get into high paying jobs I am learning DSA but i am worried that what i have been working on for 2 years might not be taken into account as actual experience. I am worried that big companies might reject my profile because of this lack of real world coding experience. I am really confused what to do. My manager is pushing to get a certification in Drupal and get hands on experience on coding in drupal (php, jquery, twig). I don't think drupal has scope when compared to mern. I don't see a lot of jobs for drupal when i search in linkedin or naukri. What's your take on this ? The problem here is i am really confused whether to continue learning MERN (i have been learning and have a decent idea) as mern looks like best bet to me to apply for big tech companies.
Kindly please advice.
Thanks in advance.
you should definitely go for MERN, its fa
r better than Drupal
a any given day.
showcase your projects well and don't think too much on ppl not considering the 2yoe, because there isn't a big paygap between a knowledgeable MERN fresher vs 2years PHP dev
The same thing happened to me i have an interest in java but they put me in oracle ebs , plsql which I can't see my future with this stack i want to switch my domain in java but the company has a weird criteria I don't understand what i have to do now
Would really appreciate your thoughts on this
