I have a good degree and am fairly senior. I was on a team with a couple peoples first job out of boot camps, and new grads, as the only senior person on the team.
I’ve done mostly backend/devops type work, and this was a full stack react project, and I’ve never done react. So I’m doing a new feature and pull one of the boot camp graduates and ask for help. “Really you want my help?” This person had no cs background but was way more knowledgeable than me in this.
My point being, everyone has something to add regardless of their background. Up or down find people to learn from.
Also, I don’t know anybody’s resume - I may have read it while interviewing but I read so many they’re totally forgotten. Really don’t care

By being open about this, to can also build team camaraderie. Also, there are a lot of “experts” that don’t actually know as much as they’d like you to think. The best experts embrace this and work to always learn more.
