I live in UK and I am a job seeker.I am good reader for this forum but never posted much on this.I finished my Masters in dec 2007 and gave birth to baby in 2008.So i was busy with baby but at the same time i started reading .net ,i thought it gonna be easy to read and get job.But because of lack of concentration i couldn't get job actually i didn't apply any job.
and later about year back i started learning sql server and MSBI ,attended classes ,and same again i am reading practising but not able to get the confidence.when i see user's posts about their queries and problems i get lot of tense and think how to solve if i face that.
Well actually this all about my background my question is , i want to apply jobs now,and i am new to job field but i have to keep 2yr's exp in my resume to forward it,how i have to prepare for interview and what Do they will expect from me.Please any help will be appreciate.
To be frankly i am reading from past 9 months but never applied any job ,always feel like i have to read bit more,and i know if i attend interview i will know my level but still i am bit confused or may be scared of something or actually don't know.
well... if you never jump into the water you will never get wet 🙂
Do you have any real life experience as a programmer or any other role in the IT industry?
I would try for an entry level position in whatever field is closer to the one you do have experience to show - alternative would be to volunteer until you feel confident and able to show a reasonable experience.
