By employed I mean get a job in the industry either offline or online. Ideally something that would highly likely remain in-demand in the near future.

    Thank you! Is SQL and data modelling the most in-demand IT-related thing I can learn these days to get employed remotely?

      Oof, I wouldn’t know about that. I was purely talking from personal experience. I don’t have a good picture of the job market in total, let alone in whichever country you live. If you want to get into the data-related IT fields (data analist, data engineer, business intelligence specialist, etc.) then SQL and data modeling skills are a must-have. But it’s just a small part of a much bigger discipline.

      If possible, find some professional career counseling. Someone with better knowledge of the job market where you live might give you some good advice on which steps to take first.

        Actually a good piece of advice. Haven’t thought of a career counselor before.

        I’ve been in search of a career counselor online but couldn’t find anything worthwhile. Any advice on who I could talk to?

          No, I’m sorry. I wish I could help but I’m a bit out of my depth with this one. You might try a local career counselor, but that really depends on where you live and who’s available.

          I wish you the best of luck though, I hope you’ll find what you’re looking for.
