The niche stuff was like shaders, computer vision stuff for ultrasound machines, self driving cars for ford and some chinese company, and a few others i dont remember.

I would expect a lot fewer "niche" entry level positions, but if you can get a spot there great.

The free trial is 7 days long. There are 14 sections. Each section should take 30 minutes to an hour to complete. I averaged about one hour, 45 minutes per day (two sections per day) and was able to complete it on the last day of the trial. However, I already had some python experience that just hadn't been exercised in a few years, so YMMV. In either case, if you can complete two sections per day then you can do it during the free trial.

I was under the impression that you can only do courses during the free trial of 1 week , but just yesterday decided to check , and that was completely false and im doing the computer science path at the moment. I dont know how far it lets me learn for free but so far so good. Not blaming it on you , just my own stupidity for not checking. Final exams in a couple of weeks so im playing a dangerous game learning programming and about whats happened in the past 100years in my country. lol
