In college, my programming classes were mostly in C++, Java, and C#. Those languages are generally important/important for working at companies like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, etc. A vast number of jobs these days are looking for developers with experience working with web applications. Full-stack and front-end developers will almost always need to know JavaScript (mainly for client-side application development). If you are hoping to just get your foot in the door and feel out if you enjoy programming or not, I would recommend starting with Python. It is widely used language that is easy to jump into and learn. If you are hoping to learn programming via working on a small side project there are some great NodeJS courses/tutorials online. Personally, I've found some good courses of Udemy.com and some great tutorials at Thinkster.io. Hope this helps!
