Can I get a job knowing ONLY Java ?

Question

I know Java pretty well. I'm learning Python, then either JS/HTML. I know employers want coders who know multiple languages/tools. How hard would it be to find work? What languages/tools should I learn next to better my chances? Thanks

Answer 1

You can definitely find a job knowing only one language but that gives you less bargaining power and you're almost certainly going to need at least one other language for whatever kind of with you end up doing. I've never had a job where I haven't needed to use less than three different languages.

Answer 2

Certainly. Although knowing just the language on it's own may not be enough. There are plenty of other "small" (or otherwise miscellaneous) skills most employers would expect you to have like source control (Git) and so on.
Having said that, it's definitely worth knowing more than one language. There's always plenty of demand for a wide variety of developers who either specialise in or have experience in languages. I feel like in such a dynamic market, why limit yourself and your capabilities?
