According to the data, Apple and IBM are leading the pack with the highest number of job offers, followed by other top giants in the industry like Amazon and Facebook which also make their mark with a good portion of Python job openings.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to company size, it\u2019s obvious that most of the offers are posted by companies with more than 10,000 employees, which proves that big firms are actively recruiting candidates with Python.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nevertheless, there\u2019s a reasonable number of Python Job opportunities for SMEs.(Small and Medium Scale Enterprises) as well, and that\u2019s definitely good news for job seekers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-ast-global-color-4-background-color has-background has-medium-font-size\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.guvi.in\/courses\/programming\/python\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.guvi.in\/courses\/programming\/python\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn Python for FREE! <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-ast-global-color-4-background-color has-background has-medium-font-size\">IIT-M-based structured-vetted curriculum, access complete exclusive content at no charge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cities with Highest Python Job Openings&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moving on to locations, state-wise, Bangalore tops the list, Hyderabad is a not-so-close second, but it also boasts a high number of Python job openings.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bangalore, being the silicon valley of India currently has the highest number of Python offers. What\u2019s also worth noting is that there are quite a few offers marked as \u2018Remote\u2019 without mentioning any city.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This could be mainly due to the current pandemic situation as most companies are having their employees work from home. Still, as you can see, that doesn\u2019t make location irrelevant in terms of the number of Python job openings.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>But which industries should you target?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As expected, our Job Portal research shows that most of the Python Job offers are concentrated in the IT industry. However, this barely exhausts all possibilities &#8211; there\u2019s a considerable number of offers coming from the Financial Services and Education industries, as well.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><em>So, what are the most in-demand roles related to Python?<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The highest number of Python job postings is for the Software Engineer role. Very often people with this job title specialize in a programming language. Python, Java, and Javascript are a few very popular options.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second type of role with the most job ads citing Python is data scientist.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Python is the programming language of choice in the data science world, so no surprise here.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good number of jobs are posted for research roles in various fields.

Now that you know more about the companies, locations, and industries offering Python job opportunities, as well as the roles associated with this programming language, It\u2019s time to learn what education and skill you need to impress employers and land a Python job.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Bachelor\u2019s degree would suffice for around half of the cases (50% of listings require a Bachelor\u2019s). But the other half of the job offerings require a Master\u2019s and a Ph.D. diploma. As far as specialization is concerned, unsurprisingly, Computer Science has been mentioned as the most in-demand educational background in the majority of openings.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, Mathematics and Physics are also preferred as educational backgrounds by employers.&nbsp; Moving on to the most important part\u2013 skills. What other programming languages are listed as desirable in job offers along with Python?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SQL tops the list \u2013 as a database query language, SQL proficiency is a must in addition to programming language competence.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other programming languages mentioned in the job offers include R and Java. And if you\u2019re looking for one single place to master Python, SQL, R, and plenty more in-demand tools, we\u2019ve got you covered.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Role of Python Libraries &amp; Frameworks&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, going back to our research, we can\u2019t omit the fact that, to a large extent, Python has become famous because of its libraries. Let&#8217;s see which are the most wanted ones out there. Over the last few years, Pandas became a favorite library for data manipulation activities.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, naturally, it is cited in the largest number of openings. Numpy, Tensorflow, and Scikit Learn are the other more sought-after libraries in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guvi.in\/blog\/careers-in-data-science\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Data Science field<\/a> heading the list.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interestingly enough, Selenium is frequently mentioned as well, mainly because there is a Python wrapper available for Selenium with applications in Automation testing.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Python for Web Technologies<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTML and CSS are mentioned in the highest number of job descriptions along with Python, which makes perfect sense, as they play a foundational role when building Web applications. On the other hand, Python\u2019s own web frameworks like Django and Flask also stand out as some of the key web technologies Python job seekers could need on the job.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other technologies &amp; skills do you need to master before you apply for a Python-related role?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To put it briefly \u2013 yes. To secure a job, sometimes knowing one programming language isn\u2019t enough. Based on the role, candidates are expected to know other areas as well, like version controlling through GIT\/Github and deploying the application using platforms like Docker.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cloud technologies like AWS have been mentioned in quite a few job offers, too.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Big Data is required in a good number of openings, mostly related to data analyst and data engineer roles.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, aside from the technical skills which are clearly a must for Python jobs, how important are soft skills, such as Communication? Well, according to the data, communication is important. 477 job posts explicitly require good communication skills.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Python Job Experience is required?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve arrived at the last category in our research -experience: Most companies desire candidates with at least 2\u20133 years of experience.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the greater part of the job offers in our sample is suitable for candidates with at least 5 years of experience. So, keep that in mind and make sure you constantly upgrade your skill set in your resume and work on relevant tasks and projects to stay competitive.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kickstart your Programming journey by enrolling in HCL GUVI\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guvi.in\/zen-class\/python-course\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=hyperlink&amp;utm_campaign=python-job-opportunities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Python Course<\/strong><\/a> where you will master technologies like multiple exceptions, classes, OOPS concepts, dictionaries, and many more, and build real-life projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, if you would like to explore Python through a Self-Paced course, try HCL GUVI\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guvi.in\/courses\/programming\/python\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=hyperlink&amp;utm_campaign=python-job-opportunities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Python course<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alright.
