Very strong in LAN based as well as Client-Server programming with predefined methods.

Within 15 minutes of learning, you can do more operations than what you have learnt in C/C++ coaching, like deleting a range of nodes etc. In socket programming, one line of code is enough on client side just to send a simple message like "Hello Server" to server.
To say one word, there is no part of world where Java is not used. A Java student can get a job anywhere in the world. It is object-oriented and platform independent.
