Skills/aptitudes in a CV

Skills/aptitudes in a CV

Hi,my parents never teached me what to write in a CV and now I have to write some things which I totally do not understand.
Just don't laugh of me!
In the section of skills/aptitudes you write that you were good at math/programming?
I'm asking this question because I wasn't guided by my parents and instead of being guided they sent me to Tara lui Andrei where I observed that a lot of people had skills with the help of their parents/neighbours while I stood there and did nothing and pretend that I was good at wiring houses.
Is this my own fault?
My own father isn't an electrician,he's a jack of all trades and I tried to understand what the heck he was saying about electrical components but he was too dumb to explain.
I just find it unfair that some kids are gifted while I had to use the internet as an excuse for everything. My parents are uneducated and they're incapable of teaching me life advices,life problems.
Do I have to start from the bottom if I have no experience at all?
I've learnt math,physics,chemistry in the highschool and what have I remained with? Nothing,nothing at all.
In highschool I learnt about Pythagora,limts,derivatives and all other useless junk which I don't use in everyday life.
These subjects never helped me with my CV and to increase the chance to get a decent job.
The advice of LarryLegend just doesn't apply in my case. What should I do?

Can someone hire you if you learnt programming languages from ************?I know this is pirating but I have no money for programming books.
What's wrong with piratery?


Make sure to spell it skillz. That'll show you're fresh and vital.

And if you got lots, refer to them as mad.


You shouldn't need to pirate to learn programming. Basically all the best programming tools out there are open source.


You would probably experience more success in life if you didn't expend so much time and energy trying to discover shortcuts around every small obstacle you encounter.

Well it's easy for you to say that when you have 2 parents
I do have parents but they don't care about my education
Torrents are the only thing that I had as an education~
My own country didn't give me anything to achieve success.
My father is an alcoholic,a thief,a criminal and my mom has a degree in psychology but she has no idea what advice to give because she has no life experience!

What's wrong with piracy?I mean if it's free isn't that a good thing?


Nobody learns how to program from a book.

Smells like troll in here...

I wasn't trolling...I was just looking for shortcuts because I have no books and no dvds in programming.
I mean I have seen free sites but they don't cover all the chapters.They show me a list of each subject but it doesn't explain how each component works.
What I'm saying is that w3schools shows some parts about Java but it doesn't show me how to write a program.
A torrent file would give me that kind of example and how you create a program but free sites don't.They give you fractions of codes and in these codes you have to think by yourself even if you didn't participated in a computer science class.

Let's assume somebody has zero programming experience. What would be the best resource to get started in learning how to code? There seems to be so many options online that it is a little overwhelming to really know where to start.

freecodecamp

That's the best place to get started. AINEC.

That's a great resource.

There are reddits to lead you in the right decision. Our own 2+2 computer forum has a sticky that includes a long list of resources: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/48/co...

Apparently even public libraries offer free courses and general assistance for people who are interested in coding.

To be clear: When I wrote that nobody learns how to code from a book, I meant that basically the same way as with poker. There are obviously great written resources but it's something that you learn by doing not just by reading and today's online resources are so vast that nobody has to start with a book.


Super cool. Thank you!


Wolly’s trolls are growing on me. The dedication to his troll threads and willingness to continue them years after the troll has died is admirable.

Well done, Wolly. Well done.


wtf is a CV


Curriculum Vitae


CV is what people call their resume even if they have zero academic credentials outside a random bachelor's degree and apply for a position in the private sector.

I haven't done anything to anyone.I cutted my veins because of you.What have I done to you?Why are you doing this to me?
I haven't provoked anyone and neither have I laughed of all of you.
Can't you see that I'm a victim here?
Why do you have to keep throwing **** at me?
