|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Typically require a Java certification or relevant coursework | Often hold a bachelor's degree in computer science or related field, with or without certifications |
| Work Environment | Contract-based, short-term projects, often freelance or agency work | Full-time employment within companies, involved in ongoing development |
| Industry Usage | Common in consulting, staffing agencies, and project-based roles | Standard in software development teams across industries |

→ Strong communication skills and ownership mentality
Nice to Have

Why Join?
→ Build in a massive $24T market undergoing major digital transformation
