Achievement Unlocked: Get Hired as a Junior Developer

  > "the fact someone has a degree in Computer Science means complete dick" I don't agree, sure you can learn everything yourself, but you won't learn the things you consider boring. People with a degree in CS have more often than not a much better overview over what to do when and why. It starts in chosing the right tool for the work and ends with structured and usefull documentation.

    Yeah I agree, not withstanding that the people you meet in school can be a very big part of you networking afterwards. Much easier to get a new job if the place you're applying for has an employee who can vouch that you didnt let him down during that team project.
