Personally, based on my findings, I have never found any Delphi job openings. Surprisingly, in my previous college, there was one major that is still being taught as part of its curriculum.

Well then, I would like to say that you are lucky enough to get this opportunity. However, there's an upcoming challenge that you might find difficult to handle.

When you encounter errors in your code, as we know, Delphi is currently not very popular. Therefore, there will be fewer communities for you to seek help from (e.g. Stackoverflow, Dev.to).

I'm just afraid that junior-level programmers will struggle with this. However, if you have good and deep motivation to explore, there's nothing to worry about. As others have said, it's all up to you.

Your observation about the challenge of finding help is very insightful. Even though there is a person at the company who is a professor with a PhD and could potentially assist, I prefer to attempt to find solutions on my own first. This is definitely a factor to keep in mind.
