    Know thy tools.

    1. IDE (IntelliJ, very good, get acquainted)
    2. VCS (Git, most likely)
    3.Dependency management (Maven/Gradle)
    4. OS command line fundamentals
    5. Certification from Oracle (jk lol)

    Also, learn your target platform and all related stuff.

    For example, if you are doing Android, very likely, you'll need to know how HTTP and networking works, file handling, data encoding, etc.

    @jairo95j test driven development. You don't need it to write code but a lot of companies require it

    if you're doing Android development, learn about fragments and how they fit into the application life cycle.

    once you have that, the rest of Android coding is cake.
