I will say I do believe this is a much smaller issue in the bay area (and possibly a few other places), provided you can code okay. If you are looking for a job, say, in Phoenix, St. Louis, Dallas or similar, the HR hurdles are much harder to overcome. Those places want CS or EE, maybe ME.
I have a BS in Applied Physics.
- noetic_techy 7y agoAgreed, although I no longer live in the Bay Area, I grew up there and probably would not have had the same problems. Cost of living and a sense of "been there done that" kept me from going back. Luckily coming from SV, I had some coding skills just from high school and stuff I was doing on the side + internships back home, and that was a major factor in landing my current job.
