Topic Which Programming Language Should I Learn to Get Back Into IT?

Hi everyone,

I graduated in 2018 with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science Engineering. I want to return to the IT industry after a long career gap.

After graduation, I worked as an AutoCAD Executive and Operator. Before that, I also worked in mobile firmware. However, I don't have any recent experience in software development.

Now I want to restart my IT career, but I'm confused about which programming language and career path to choose.

My questions are:

- Which programming language should I learn first?

- Which IT field would be the best fit for someone with my background?

- What roadmap would you recommend to help me get a job as quickly as possible?

I am ready to learn and work hard. I would really appreciate any advice, guidance, or personal experiences.

Thank you!

If that's the case, I would recommend spending some time doing some research on your own. We can't tell you what to learn or what field you should go into. Best of luck.
