I used to code frequently as a hobby in a variety of programming languages and did computer support work professionally until a couple of years ago.

I am finishing up college and will be graduating late this spring. I am thinking of programming again and I am considering trying out software and web programming as a possible career option when I graduate.

I am facing several delimas.


My question is what languages and skills should I learn? Are any employers reading this? What are your guidelines in hiring new programmers?

I am a business major and not a computer science major and I wonder if I should focus on web development where the requirement for a computer science degree is not as high. I have several college level books on c# and Java. Which would be wise for someone starting out?
