I am a 2015 graduate currently working in Infosys. I finished my training in January, been on bench since. So I don't have any experience with real world projects.

I like learning and tinkering with new(and old) technologies, also I have a keen interest in game development.

I am a young professional looking to break in to tech. I've worked in broadcast journalism and work as a freelance writer and photographer. I have accomplished a few of the free courses on codecademy and Udacity, and have startup experience, both working alongside co-founders and at an incubator hub run by my alma mater. I'm 25, am deeply interested in how tech has increasingly been calling the shots in unexpected areas of life, and I'm willing to take a risk. Accountability and communication are probably my two biggest assets. Even if this doesn't result in work, more I'm looking to make connections (which has proven to be one of the best parts of the wonderful HN community!) Thanks for reading.

when I see programmers who know so many languages, I feel like I have no chance and I dont bother to apply, but thankfully I have a lot of ideas of my own.I hope you will accept a worthy offer, because not many employers can understand beside languages how long it takes to learn all the other technologies.

Don't be discouraged by this: Actually knowing many programming languages in itself is not something more employers are looking for. The skill is being able to learn a new language/framework, and if you have some experience building something in 3 or 4 languages (even if you're not necessarily an 'expert'), that's a pretty good indicator you can learn a new one. In general, people with more experience have more languages, and no one expects a junior programmer to know 10 languages.

Being able to become proficient in a new language or framework is a learned skill, which you can practice on your own by just trying to write something in a new language or framework. And the best part, by doing this, you increase the number of languages you know.

I am a web developer with years of experience transitioning to being a security researcher/engineer. I am currently studying penetration testing and reverse engineering binaries. Please no pure web dev job offers, I can easily find that kind of work! Right now I'm looking for my first job doing mostly security work.
