that can be difficult
Comp Sci is kinda different. You can get a good job if you don't have a degree
American education isn't bad, the problem is that it is not good.
many employees care more of what you've done vs. what your degree is
though not to knock having a comp. sci degree
Degree can certainly help more in the what you learn vs the accolade itself
@RedShipley what would you say i do to increase my chances of getting a job?
a good github profile
maybe a website that they can browse
Cool. I'll do that!
If you can do a lot currently, building a portfolio always helps.
If you have a bunch of projects on that, you'll be steps ahead of your fellow grads that don't
One of the more important things you learn with schooling is the algorithms really.
also this website: https://www.careercup.com/
has a lot of the questions that interviewers ask
sometimes even straight from it
people are often too busy to be creative
My uncle tells me that clean, organized, and optimized code are often sought after, it is not always best to just make it work, but needs to be ready to be adapted.
very true
i often dont finish until the deadline because product owners change their mind constantly
Also notes are absolutely necessary, because it will help others that you work with, or someone in the future who will be doing updates, or even yourself because you will forget why you even did something. Ether way employers will look for this.
Good point.
I imagine that a lot of programs rely on each other as well, especially when considering databases, so I would guess that being organized would help in that sense as well.
Good documentation for the future
I imagine there are moments when a programmer remembers there was something super effective that they used before but cant quite remember what it was.
It happens. After thousands of lines of codes, things get forgotten
Something my friend would often use.
Also good place to practice, run into problems that if you find an answer for will help you down the line.
Jesus fucking christ this is hilarious
the self awareness scale bottomed out
