I'm working as a customer service executive for a software firm in my country. I have been learning programming with Java for over a year now and also trying my hands dirty with Android development. Though I have a post grad diploma in advance computing but it did'nt really worked out since I had no idea how to code plus I lost my mother during my time in university, and then three of my elder brothers died of Schizophrenia and lost my sister also couple of years back due to severe thyroid. Yes. anxiety had me for four years but I was'nt ready to give up. So I thought I should start doing something else as I am a constant learner. Let me mention, the prime reason to get a job like this is because I had financial difficulties as well. I want to learn programming because to be honest I am really tired handling complaints :-(. but because I tried learning it in the past and I really loved it and I know I can do it. Right now I am enrolled in android nondegree program with udacity. Having said that as I am kick starting my career as a developer or may be as a programmer so learning only through online degree program was difficult as I was starting again from scratch and now I am constantly learning new things everyday. I am using tons of different resources like tutorials, mostly books, stackoverflow (super helpful) and blogs. I read so many stories here on dev community so I thought I should share mine I think as they say "constant learning eventually leads to success" so I am keeping my fingers crossed!
