Am I cooked as a 4th year humanities student
Soo yeah... I'm in my 4th year at a somewhat reputable university in Kansai. Humanities/politics type major. Got no extracurriculars, internships, random shitty part time job experience here and there. No skills really, but I'm fluent in English and Japanese because I spent half my life outside of Japan and half my life in Japan.
I would be interested in working in IT (yes, I know, generic ass goal). I originally wanted to do engineering but my life blew up so I ended up in my current major. But again I have no skills or experience or anything. I know this is prime shukatsu season (actually I'm already pretty late), can you give me any advice on how I can get an entry level job in IT, preferably in a programming role?
I have no salary expectations, ego, or anything whatsoever. I'm fine with 2.5 million yen per year with no bonus or whatever. I'll work overtime. Of course the higher the salary, the better, but I don't think I'm in a position to negotiate. As long as I can just get an entry level job where they teach me the ropes from 0 knowledge and prepare me to become half useful in industry, I'd be happy with that.
Can you please give me some input on whether this is a sound goal? What companies should I apply to and what am I supposed to prepare? Learn how to code? Study SPI? I feel like I have no time left but so much on my plate.
