I’ve done dev work in java and python which I think I could expand on more! Thank you for that insight it was helpful

OP, what was your role exactly? What industry?

Business systems analyst and test manager in healthcare and life sciences. I know intermediate SQL but not an expert.

I’m in the same position as well. Thinking of going into more product management but wouldn’t mind delving down into code. What kind of code would you folks recommend? Analytics focused, automation or some hybrid front end/back end?

Is your experience all in consulting? Because that is different, industry experience from "functional" sense, is 10000x better than consulting. But, you'll be OK
