[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is my take on this. Most CS jobs do NOT require a CS degree to do the job. Most developers in the DMV are just coders. It might make a difference elsewhere but not in the DMV as far as I can tell. Landing a CS job is also more about who you know than what you know. I can hire someone with a CS degree from GMU and that person can do just as good a job as someone with a CS degree from UMD or UVA. In fact, I had to turn down a CS major candidate for an internship at my company for someone studying liberal arts and minor in CS from Goucher (I didn't even know Goucher is a college until I looked it up). He was chosen over the UMD candidate because my boss knows his parents. It is what it is but who you know matter a whole lot more. YMMV. [/quote] Most jobs do not need a college degree likewise. and networking/connecis a good source for job hunting as always has been. What's your point? Yawn[/quote]
