Ah, alright. I had quite a few projects throughout my college career that forced me to learn certain languages / software, so I get where you're coming from about just tackling projects in general. It's pretty much what I've done up to this point. They've got me specifically designing and working on the front-end for this web application we're building, so I'm thinking it's going to be a great learning experience. I've never touched database or server code up until this point, and it's pretty interesting. I'm really happy I got a position where I'm basically given free reign to pursue learning how to complete the task my own way. |
one advice. it's always good to know where you feel your most comfort is, and where you can be happy and grow. Some people feel they can thrive at the front end side (javascript, html, flash, design, assets, etc ..), or they thrive at the back end side (the software methodology basics, security, parallelism, concurrency, etc ..).
hopefully your current company gives you a chance to touch both sides of the spectrum, and you can get a good feel where your comfort level is. my comfort level is the back end side of things.
just to note, if you do end up thriving on the back end side, it's not all about the code you are typing, but the design and methodologies you are using. it all goes down to the basics.
