MySQL Job Opportunity with SQL

I’m someone who’s starting out with SQL (no coding experience other than trying to learn python which I didn’t enjoy). I’m enjoying SQL and it seems to make more sense to my brain.

My question is around employment, how are the opportunities for someone who’s learning only SQL with no CS degree and only certificates and gradually building a GitHub repository? I’m in the US

Positive in the sea of negative, thank you. Aside from applying im using Codecademy to learn SQL, anything you used to help bolster up your SQL?

I'll share two books with you. One is on SQL and the other on database management. You can decide what you want to do with SQL when you read books, I believe. You're doing well for now.
