    Choose the lazy route. I am good with learning languages so I went with a diploma in foreign language education. I can’t find a job but eh, even people with doctoral degrees can’t find one in this hellhole. I am pretty good with computers too but it’s meaningless without a certification and there’s no chance am gonna waste 6 month of my life learning basic office tools i already know / can automate programmatically. Sorry, needed to vent.

      Tbf in most IT companies nobody cares about certs that are not on some form mandatory. A company caring about certs might be a negative signal to their ability to hire effectively for IT roles

        Which i was living where you guys live but I am stuck in a third world hellhole.

        I mean, it’s so shit that despite a regular monthly paycheck being around 150$ (less than half of India average paycheck ) we have very little foreign companies outsourcing to here.
