This is good enough for me.
How do I get my foot in the door?

>being happy with a Pajeet tier job when any decent company will give you 200k starting with a proper degree
>>
>>61929687
I'd be more than happy to demonstrate my ability or even have a single interview without a degree
>>
Old companies tend to require degrees. Newer companies don't have that as an absolute requirement. If you're smart and know your stuff, they'll hire you.

Don't mind me, just performing cardiac surgery without a degree

No they won't. They'll throw your application in the trash because 10 other people from MIT and Stanford also applied for the aame position.

>They'll throw your application in the trash

This isn't the 90s anymore, grandpa. Physical resumes aren't no longer a thing.
>>
>>61929830
And yet I've yet to seen anyone without a degree here actually at a respectable job.
>>
>>61929895
You're just scared that you'll get replaced.

Things you need to get a programming job:
>Degree

Things you don't need
>Ability to program
>>
>>61929469
>no degree
>working in an international game development company
>been working there for 8 years
>still 27 years old
>make 400k year, will soon be promoted again
all you need is to self learn and build stuff, if you show stuff done by yourself you'll get a job anywhere without degree.
thats what i did, and it worked
>>
>>61929966
Getting a degree is still the easier path, most people won't be able to do what you did
>>
>>61929966
>game development
>400k a year
LOL no. Nice made up story pal.
>>
>>61929830
There's a digital trash that they throw them into.,

>>61929469
I'm getting rejected wherever I apply despite very strong and often perfect interviews. Meh, just life I guess.
>>

What's your skillset?

I very much doubt that
>>
>>61929966
>400k a year as a game dev
lmao
>>
>>61929469

I only am at university, because i am a lazy faggot.
Seriously, i do maybe 3-4 hours of work per day, go home, play vidya, watch some kino and that is it.
At the end i am going to have a degree to show for it, which i can use to get a decent job or atleast a good internshipand later on occupation.
Why would i waste my early twenties working like a maniac, only to burn out at 30 ?

Unless you're interested in a good salary and/or promotion.
No company will promote someone without qualifications. And they can hire non-grauate "coders" off the street.

ftw no work
>>
>>61929830
Actually yes, this is still a requirement in all practical senses. You always take your resume to interviews regardless of whether or not they already have it. It shows that you have office skills, which you need to interact with anyone who isn't technical at a company.

>get 2 degrees

should have just stayed home and collect autismbux

Not even the bank has asked me for a physical resume, and tech companies? Didn't even need my shirt.
>>
>>61929748
You need at least a PhD to do that legally.

You reap what you sew anon...
>>
>>61931451
Actually, yes, I have worked in the old IBM headquarters. I've been doing back to back contracts for the past 2 years so I've interviewed alot, and this simple tip works like a charm. I've been offered jobs directly in the interview by working the professional angle.
>>
>>61929687
nice bullshit, there.
>>
Why do so many of you dream of being a slave? A master needs no degree, all the resources he needs is available over the internet. University is an outdated form of learning, cast away your shackles and build yourself by your own merit; don't aspire to be the underdog.
