Good morning guys.
I need an advice and probably a mentor too.
I graduated with a degree in Computer Science since 2011. Been working in the state civil service since 2013 as a Data/Program Analyst (what we get to do most mostly is just excel). If anybody is familiar with the pay as a state civil servant, you'll know how poor the salaries are and I've got mouths to feed. I'm trying to learn something new to get another job. I've done html+css+javascript(basics, 1 or 2 basic project, nothing huge) and python+flask (didn't really build anything, just the knowledge) in the past.
Now, I don't know what next to do.
Options:
1.) I thought of continuing with web development especially the javascript stacks but I'm hearing the competition there is high since that's what most bootcamps are teaching. Maybe i go for PHP (learnt that in the past too) & Laravel as it's less saturated but what of the job prospects?
2.) Also thought of going into cloud computing or cybersecurity but major problem is getting the funds to write the certification exams needed for those roles.
3.) Continuing in my current line to either learn Data science or machine learning.

Please guys, I need advice on what I can go for considering time to learn and job prospects.

Follow your passion, there lies your financial freedom….with your passion you can easily decode what best to learn and unravel in the market.

Maybe in the long run. But need something for the short term

Start with data science and machine learning. That can get you a quick remote side gig
