 Are here any beginners or pros here that can explain what path they took to learn PHP. Video tutorials, documentation, mentors, building projects, etc... What worked, what pain points did you face while learning? What did you before you get first job offer? Because I passed some courses from [skillcombo], but I'm not confident in my skills to get junior job.

As a retired professional coder/analyst/designer I simply picked up a PHP book at the local bookstore and started reading.  With previous experience with learning languages it was fairly easy since the concepts are the same just the words are different and some functions are new or slightly different.  Then I started doing simple db interactions, form designs and eventually CSS inclusion.  And once I got into some serious projects (personal stuff) I found these forums and asked questions about what I was doing wrong, SHOWING the faulty code for others to see and offer assistance.
