As someone else who have hired developers I agree with the parent post here. Examples include: - totally oblivious to standard library for the language/frameworks, reimplementing the most basic things (poorly) - even after a 3 year CS education, lacks basic understanding of object-oriented programming/class hierarchies - has trouble implementing even simple if/else-conditions without help I’m talking really basic stuff here. You’d be surprised. I assume that if you are self-taught, you have the interest and because of that already much more knowledge than many graduates.
