pritesh_ugrankar has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Hi Monks, I've been here asking for help and guidance and always gotten far more than I could've asked for. I'm here again asking for your help and direction. I'm currently working as a Storage guy who's used Perl to automate stuff. Considering the current job market where storage skills are not in much demand, I was planning to focus on automation and Perl programming to my skillset. But then I'm really not sure how the Perl Job market is, what skills are required? Is the focus on Dancer/Mojolicious, or is Perl still used for automation by other organisations? Or may be it won't be wise of me to abandon my storage profile and completely move into a Perl job. In that case, how can I combine my storage experience with Perl scripting skills to make a good profile? Ofcourse, companies are more looking for problem solvers or solution creaters rather than skillset in a specific language, but just wondering if there could be some jobs where Perl programming skills are sought after, especially considering the fact that Perl is a general purpose language. I think another major consideration is where I live. I'm from India and I don't see much Perl related job postings. Are there any remote Perl jobs? I apologise if the questions seem all over the place and nowhere. But would truly be thankful for guidance.
