How to Select a Field in the Software?

How to Select a Field in the Software? is one of the most frequently asked questions by many software developer candidates who are just starting out in software. In fact, the answer to this question, which consists of seemingly very simple steps, is not simple at all. Let’s take a look at how to select a field in the software in this content.

Having Basic Software Knowledge

As I have always stated in almost all of my content, it is absolutely essential for anyone who wants to take any step in software to have a solid knowledge base. You can access my video content on how to lay the foundations in software and where to start by clicking here.

However, if we need to talk about it in its most basic form, in order to say that you have a foundation in software, you need to have basic algorithm knowledge, have a solid foundation in basic programming education and be knowledgeable about data structures. Apart from these, of course, knowing the history and development stages of computers and software and having basic hardware knowledge will be very valuable for you when choosing a field.

Conducting Field Selection Research in Software

If we have become a student with basic software knowledge, our next step should definitely be to do serious field research in software. I have shown how we should do this field research at a basic level in my video at the bottom, but to give a brief summary, we need to open our profiles on LinkedIn and KariyetNet sites and generally search the job postings in the software.

Especially when doing this research, it will be very important that we start from the general to the specific, that is, the software keyword, and move on to more niche word groups step by step. After completing this step on both channels, I strongly recommend that you research foreign sources on Google and see what the trends in the software are. In this step, be sure to choose more than one field, but try not to select more than three, otherwise you will get confused.

Conducting Studies on Selected Areas

Yes, let’s take the next step. If you have started to think about three areas in software field selection, what you need to do now is to research how you can work on these software areas.

The foundation of software development is based on problem solving, friends, do not forget this. Now is the time to start trying to redo projects in whatever field you have chosen, either with the feeling that I can do the same thing or with the feeling that I can do it better. Once you have managed to do this, you need to start trying your own projects little by little.

The most important point of this step is that you should definitely not engage in long projects, otherwise you will prolong the process and waste time. In this step, at the end of the trials, you need to start moving on whichever you feel at peace and happy in, and whichever you are successful in when you look at it objectively. For this reason, at this point, you must establish a balance between your logic and your emotions, do not forget that.

Don’t listen to outside interventions and know-it-alls, really focus on what comes from within you.

Identifying What Is Most Loved – What Is Successful and Continuity

Yes, we have now chosen the field in which we are most successful and happiest, but our work is not done, dear friends. Now is the time for us to work hard. If, after working so hard and choosing your field, you cannot ensure continuity and do not work, you will be a shame to yourself, do not forget that.

My Mind is Stuck in Other Areas, What Should I Do?

Friends, do not listen to anyone telling you that you will only specialize in one field. You follow him and keep working, there are many people in this world who specialize in more than one field and many of them prove their differences in every environment they enter.

Don’t be afraid to try and don’t forget it. Just remember that when you truly specialize in one area, work on other areas one level below the core expertise.
