I am from Thiruvannamalai. My father and elder brother are farmers. My younger brother is still studying. I finished my B.Sc. CS in 2018. I am actually a first-generation graduate. But when it comes to getting a job, it is a different story.

My cousin is a front-end developer. He encouraged me to try for a career in development. First, he said I needed the right skills. I have decent JavaScript knowledge but in other languages, I am not great in others. When I talked to MicroCollege counsellors, they said I could learn full-stack development using just JavaScript. So I joined the fullstack course here.

How is it going?
The classes are very beneficial. I am getting good at development. Right now, communication is my problem. But we are doing presentations in classes every day… So I think I will learn that also.

“Vijaya Kumar is technically sound. He struggles a bit with communication but his listening skills are quite good.”
