First comment!
never knew that michael worked for the government of hawaii
big tech 100% cares if you went to college. Ive applied there many time with 10 years experience no degree. never get a call
Also if you’re lucky enough to get hired without a degree you probably won’t get any major promotions salary raises
There’s some pretty good reasons to want developers with CS degrees. I have a bachelor’s and I’m not qualified for a lot of positions which require masters or PhD. 75% of software developers don’t benefit from a CS degree in their position though. I definitely don’t use much of what I learned in school, I was a programmer long before I started college
What are your working projects? Those projects need to hold value for faang to think they can enhance your skills. Make meaningful projects you’ll get hired at big tech. Or just get a degree that might work as well.
Resume is worth less than portfolio
it’s faang you forgot apple

Degrees for cs go hot and cold. When I first started, there were a limited number of schools offering programs. Degree programs really boomed around 2000. Before then, it was easy to get work. I had no trouble. After that.. it became harder. I was self-taught too. I ended up getting a degree in 2010s just because I did see Degrees became really important. But I see a drop off of that again recently. Especially if you have notoriety like this kid. I think that’s what helped me too. I mean when I first started there wasn’t a youtube. But I worked with several companies on hard projects as a contractor. So I kinda got locally know for a short amount of time. I found most places I could just walk into with no issue. Until companies started requiring degrees.
Tech companies used to care but now they’re loosening their standards about college programming degrees
Just thinks about how much more qualified you must have to be over somebody who knows how to code and has a college degree
Although you’re saving money if you don’t put on the work you’re making yourself less competitive without that agree

Bro got in when tech was hiring anyone off the street that knew how to program Hello World, made bank, and dipped 😂
Fang was lucky netflix exist otherwise
Michael Reeves is an entertaining content creator and has a good grasp of the basics of software engineering and hobbyist electronics but he has no idea what he’s talking about when it comes to top tier tech companies. FAANG absolutely cares if you went to college, ideally a top-10 feeder company. Now, are there exceptions? Of course, but it is much more likely for a Stanford CS grad to get the position over the hundreds of thousands of online bootcamp grads being churned out every year, especially in this job market.
It true if u know your craft as good as a professional, at the end of the day its about can you do it now or you just go back to the handbook.
