How much Python do you need to know (or how confident do you need to be
with Python) before you put it on your Resume. And how do you go about
explaining the level of skill you have with it.
At what point can you say to yourself "Yeah, I can put Python on my
resume. Theres a lot of features in python I can't do or Understand but
theres many other features I have used extensivly.
and I know where and how to look up stuff when necessary
I probably have
enough that a Python employer would be interested to help me reach to
the next level"
I'm a potential Python employer and I'm not interested in funding your
growth as a developer. However, if you are sufficiently competent to do
the job in the first place at the salary offered I am definitely
interested in funding your ongoing professional development on a shared
basis. IOW your time (mostly) and my resources such as courses, books,
conferences etc. That is a win-win for us both.
In my opinion, if you know how to discover stuff you are sufficiently
competent to hold down a junior position.
If you know where your weaknesses are you are sufficiently competent to
hold down a mid-line job.
If know where your weaknesses are *and* you also have problem-domain
experience *or* you are somewhat battle-hardened with a decent
wisdom-quotient you are sufficiently competent to hold down a senior job.
