Job outlook

Ay!

I don't think anyone would mine creating their own web app or native mobile app an having it turn into a full blown business.

But let's be realistic. What we do want at the end of the day after learning our new skills is to either freelance or land a good job where you can put your skills to work and continue to grow as developer.

So this brings me to my main point: how hard is it to get your (first) job as a ROR vs iOS developer? How much exp is actually needed for entry level (very hard to find) vs. junior level position ?

I have a strong interest in both technologies and am kind of torn between the two.

I love mobile tech, and things like native mobile apps aren't going anywhere. But I feel like it's going to take me so much longer to learn and then start building something in iOS vs ROR. It seems like tinkering and working on a personal project is where a lot of the gaps are filled in.

Thank you for taking the time to read my lengthy post! Can't wait to hear the diff thoughts an ideas!
