Both very popular and look great on a resume if you know what you're doing with them. Developing a simple webapp with these tools and doing some of the operations work required to get the app hosted would look great on your GitHub page. Java/C++ is also absolutely vital and should really be the first thing you do- SQL isn't really a programming language. It's good to know for sure, but it's not going to get you a software development position. There are a ton of tools online for this. You need to know these languages well- it will make picking up other languages very easy, and Java (or something similar, such as C# or Groovy) is commonly used in the workplace. So, yeah. Go learn Java or C++. Know the basics, know your data structures and how to make them yourself. Learn some sorting algorithms, learn the basics of time complexity analysis, learn about referencing and pointers (in C++) and overloading operators and templating and all the nitty gritty. None of that will be used at your job- but you will know how to program, in any language. Build a little resume of applications on a GitHub page and share it on your linked in, then start applying! --- Not changing this sig until TimeSplitters 4 is released.
