I don’t think you can get the CS degree with being completely incompetent. A bunch of interviews I had were white boarding the logic, not actual coding. Code is easy if you know the logic.
I meant any form of qualification. Sure it helps, but the way you get the job is by showing you can actually do the work. Like a folio and personal projects or past history.
Art? Most programming? “Hard skills” / technical jobs… GOOD jobs. Sure. But there’s plenty of degrees & jobs out there.
Sounds like you landed where you were meant to be, alot of folks go where opportunity and the market takes them
Not a single person I’ve worked with in software has gotten a job with just a diploma since like the early 2000s
Maybe it’s different in some places.
Many HR departments will automatically kick out an application if it doesn’t have a degree. It’s an easy filter even if it isn’t the most accurate.
Yeah fair point, but then how are you going to get the job if you’re completely incompetent at programming 🤔
Just use AI bro

We are saying the same thing. Degree > diploma for jobs. Go to college, get degree

“Necessary, but not sufficient” sums up the role of a degree for a lot of jobs.
