What's considered 'proficent' in python?
| I'd like to know this too.
Been doing Python casually for a couple of years. Have made some websites with it (with the Flask framework), some simple text-based games. Recently applied for a Python-based internship in a tech startup, and they were impressed with what I put in my CV. I have no idea why
| You should try to get out of the web programming space. Making websites is not really what is considered advanced. Useful and profitable yes, but not advanced. Try to pick a problem or task that does not boil down to building a website and program it. Statistical data manipulation, getting input and saving it and then periodically analyse it to see if the data has been updated. Create a deadlock or race condition situafion. Dont use dbs, manipulate your data strictly from the prog.
| Have a good number of git projects and flaunt them in your github, bitbucket, gitlab, personal website or any place you want to
In the end the best proof of being good at anything that is not too subjective is to have a showcase of your skills

| My tech knowledge is entirely Amazon Web Services, SAP, Wordpress, HTML, CSS, and limited Javascript & SQL knowledge. I feel like a noob compared to most techies so I'm picking up python while honing my SQL. I'm finishing up the Codecademy lessons for python. Any tips on getting better?
