Stop the violence bro🤣🤣🤣
@@sibusisompanza9347 lol so the truth is violence neh, thats exactly why I’m removing this video
Bro come back
Your vlogs are therapeutic
another essential skill I can add to be effective as a programmer/developer is being able to communicate with your team effectively... essential that one.
👊🏾🙏🏾
Buma TV, Muzi sambo just my favourite SA UA-camrs ❤🎉
🙏🏾👊🏾
I definitely thought I heard you say 'PRAWNS' when you read the first question🤣🤣🤣
That side camera adds a nice twist to the video!
'Self-taught dad'...you were on fire today😂😂😂
👊🏾🙏🏾
As a graduate dev I got 4 offers but I applied a lot and knew my work. I ended up choosing the banking sector due to the benefits
Good for you man 🫡
@@BMTVSAYou incouraged me a lot.
Awez 💯
Ama Prawns 🦐 Madoda we are here!
This is a very interesting Q n A thanks for the information 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👊🏾
Thanks for watching
Thank you for the information in this video 👊Buma
Sho sho
Been waiting for this
Its finally here
Love your vids buma ❤.
👊🏾🙏🏾
you can push and push and have nothing 21:50😭😭that was literally me right there it took me exactly 16 months full-time going through a self-taught route until I just realised that this thing of pushing with Java ain't gonna fly and wasn't getting exactly where I wanted too many difficulties& obstacles that's when I stopped pushing cut all the background noise from people just do my own thing shift to data stuff learn other stuff at that point I learned that low demand means low comp but high demand means very high comp, started with what I had the first couple of years only made what a junior dev makes in a month but in over 2years but I was happy that it's working/progress kept on going but it was slow in the beginning it took a while but now I make almost triple of annual senior dev in a month all tax-free even I no longer do hands-on programming & technically just as you said sometimes you can push and maybe something happens..
I’m glad things eventually worked out man 👊🏾
Am marking registration here 😂😂
😅
Siyabonga nge video Mr buma I've learned a lot 🙏🔥
👊🏾
thank you
You're welcome
I see u w da Steve jobs coat
16:52 gate keeping
Lol so I'm suppose to come up with lies that there's roles available ?
What is your thought on alx data science, I'm thinking of doing it this year. I was at UJ, and I got academically excluded December 2023 in BSc in Computer Science and Informatics Extended. Java(Computer Science)and Web Development(Informatics) hit me hard, even though i was repeating them last year (Third year of the extended program, more like second year of the main degree)😅😅.
I am also looking for at least job with the knowledge I have( C++, Visual Basic, SQL, little knowledge on Java and Web Dev as I failed them) but the aim is upskilling till data science or cyber security.
This questions are crazy 😂😂
ey man you can tell Buma was tired mos...BUT he still recorded the video for us, Dankie Chief
Question for the next Q and A(whenever it is) what's your living arrangement lapho eCape town, is it your family's house, are you renting with someone?......what' with the VOLVO'S!!!!😂😂😂
Thanks for watching, that question you asking cima cima cima 🙅🏽♂️
you know before this video I always wondered why it's so difficult to get an entry-level software developer Job as a self-taught it's been over 3full months now just blanks for now not getting anything even though I am willing to work for free so frustrating I even paused on the job hunt so Does this mean that I am not gonna get a job as a self-taught developer😩😩😩?
Eish bro, as I have said in the video you will have difficulties when it comes to landing a role. The industry as of now in 2024 its very tricky and its full of people who have something so if you self taught you find yourself in a different position.
@@BMTVSAthanks, there is still plenty of hope so I will just keep on improving eventually I know that I will
Thank you for the useful information sir😂 even though there was violence involved 😂😂😂
Its sad that when a person says the truth how it is you wanna associate with violence but ke we move 😉😅
I love the honesty 😂😂😂
Ey when i’m honest people say i’m rude 😅 so I have to dial it down
I am choosing the hard route of not having a degree(self taught and udemy and youtube) and once i am inside i would like the company to sponsor money for me to do a degree. i know one self taught developer it took him 6 months to apply for a junior developer position and countless of rejection emails but he conquered . my undergrad is a nonsesical degree that is why i am considering a career change.
All the best dala what you must 🫡
Thnx u so much for the vid man….
Ok I hear u talking a lot about portfolio what are the chances of getting a role in software development without any portfolio but with a masters degree in Information Systems ??
I cannot quantify your chances, but possessing a master's degree will greatly work in your favor.
I think money for me is a bonus especially if you enjoy what you are doing. I'm saying this because the excitement after solving a bug can never be compared to money in message😂😂. Love what you are doing and forget about money you will thank me later.
Well said!
I'm an IT & Computer Science student @ a TVET college (doing NCV), would you advise me to go Uni after completing NQF level 4 or just do short courses and create a portfolio?
NQF 4 that’s equivalent to matric. You can try getting employment with a portfolio etc but it wont be easy. Adding short courses will be beneficial.
@@BMTVSA Noted, thank you🙏
I love your vids bro, but I highly disagree on your viewpoint about self taught developers, I think it really depends on where someone pops their head in.🤟
What you mean it depends on where someone pops their head in ?
Im doing systems development and at the end of the course i must choose to specialize in Data analyst or cyber which one is best
Thats two different things so when you saying best you mean best in terms of ?
What advice will you give for 1 year experienced developer busy with a masters degree in data science in how to land a role in data while studying .
I’m not in the data space so i’m not in a position to give advice.
I wanna do .NET C# but I mostly see front-end for internship... What do you think❓Should I do front end❓
Its not about what I think, Its about you and what you enjoy doing the most. This is a decision that has to be taken by you as you will be the one doing the work.
Hi Buma I registered for a bootcamp course with Codespace and I would like to know how can I improve my skillset after I'm done with the course?
By building your own things from scratch
Thank you
Can I be able to start a degree from start even though I've obtained a Diploma in IT ?
You can do an advanced diploma which is equivalent to a degree
Hi,is it possible get a software development internship with a diploma in I.T?
Or should I upgrade to a degree after completing my diploma.
I do answer that question in the video 🤷🏾♂️
Bare "don't be an idiot" yoh 😂
Eish 😅 when I recorded this vid I wasn’t having a good day.
about the self-taught part in your view would it be accurate to say if you are self-taught it's better to be self-taught in web development at the front end due to the nature of the front end compared to other roles since it's better to learn online & build a portfolio very very straight forward most of the time it's HTML, CSS, Js...etc? when I look at other roles it's hard to imagine self-taught similar to this without an internship it's more and more of a myth than a reality
edit: Great advice in the end
It's not really about favoring front-end. It's more about doing what you enjoy and what's in demand. Both backend and web development are straightforward too. For instance, just like front-end needs HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, backend for a C# dev might require C# and its .NET frameworks, plus SQL. So, it's not like backend is less organized than front-end.
@@BMTVSA thanks for responding I'm thinking of switching careers from the financial world to C# and .NET development. if that is the case then I will opt backend with C# because I've been coding in C# for six years, starting when I was just 14. Coming from a background in C++, picking up C# felt like a walk in the park, although my experience was mostly in game development as a hobby and just doing it for kicks. Now, I'm considering shifting to web development with .net, which feels like a whole new world and have a long way to go. But given the strong demand for C# and .NET in my area and opportunities, it seems like the right choice for me, even if it means opting to teach myself through online courses. so will see how it goes
13:23 not you laughing 😂😂😂😂😂😂
And another question did ur further ur studies after obtaining ur degree….am asking respectfully forgive me if the question is too personal.
I only have a degree, studying further made no sense to me
😂😂😂haHa Cima cima with self-taught if it truly becomes almost impossible to penetrate as a self-taught at this point might as well start a business or company
there is no dignity in begging
imagine a homie with no money begging one dream girl to the next getting rejected just because he has no money
19:31 what do you need to be a self taught camera man
Internet and a device that can connect to the internet. Then UA-cam and Tik Tok is your university.
Self-taught 😅😂😂
Lol someone is being very hard nice video anyway. be nice chief lol
Being nice doesn’t yield results chief, and If stating facts and being honest is being hard then ayy i’m not made for this life…
😅today is Tuesday anyway lets push@@BMTVSA hope you not having bugs to fix this week. nice content
Whats wrong with C++ in 2024...😅
In SA its below 5% in terms of usage
Not 5 rands chile 💀😂
😂😂😂😂
AI is coming😂😂
Let it come 😂😂 People like you make me laugh because its clear you don’t know jack about what we do.
@@BMTVSA morena I know what’s happening I’m a self taught dev python* imagine if they would upgrade that thing to gpt 5
@@meimnobody-gh3lc 🤣🤣 Self taught devs ayyy I give up 🥱
Im self taught don't attack my mane@@BMTVSA
Judging from the comments here he might have gone from worst to west 🤣😅😂
