I don’t think that’s how it works unless you are a genius or something because if you want to work in a big company (and most people want to do that after college or university) at first you need to have a degree so that they could start thinking about working with you.

Ok but if you made something good that would be more valuable than a degree. Their are a lot of online courses or like you said community college courses that would helpful for learning the things you need

my guy unless u prodigy or sum ts not gonna work out. u wouldn’t understand ur only 12 but trust it’s not that easy
it’s so competitive

85

But if you make something good nobody’s gonna think so unless you have a “sign” that you are capable of doing that aka degree

I understand that my point is the learning doesn’t necessarily need to come from college.

87

but certification does. bro the way ur describing it everyone should have a job and be rich right now and that’s not how the real world works😭

88

Actually idk if in your country you can find a good work without finishing college but in my country you just won’t get a good work without finishing the university.

If can prove with actions like a coding project that you are good at coding that would be more useful than a degree thats my point

nah doesn’t work like that. ion think u understand how competitive it is right now. even getting a decent job requires a degree from a decent college

93

Well for that you need some start capital and for thst you either should be a kid of a very rich person thst made his way up there by getting good education (I am sure) or you should first work somewhere and after that make that project.

I wasn’t saying that it will make you rich fast I was saying that as far as getting hired to Google a degree is not necessarily the most important thing in the world

96

nope it actually is :sob:
u won’t even be considered if u don’t have a degree from a bad college

As a point of reference for you all, here’s a list of currently available jobs at image, with requirements listed:

Whilst not all the jobs require degrees, most do.
But, CodingCrusader, if you and someone else apply for the same job, but the other person has a degree (and you don’t), they’re more likely to get the position.

You’ve got a point. But if you have a well made coding project or sumthin but no degree they might consider you over someone who doesn’t have a lot of experience besides a college degree . But then again I’m 12 so what do I know :man_shrugging:
