I for one would never consider a Software Engineer better than a Computer Science degree. I check to see if you have a degree in software and assume whatever label you use is just due to the random selection by your college.
Having no experience and no experience is killer, but once you have some experience lack of a degree isn't a big deal.
- grecy 12y agoInteresting, thanks for the perspective. My degree was an extra year on top of Comp. Sci. and included fields like compiler theory and design, real time programming, digital electric design and engineering math 1-4 which comp. sci. didn't. I'm also a certified Engineer (in Australia, anyway), which I always thought counted for something. I have about 5 years experience now.
- infinite8s 12y agoAfter about 5 yrs experience most people don't really care about where you went to school (except places like Google or Facebook). Some might care whether you completed a degree but are probably more interested in what you did the last 5 years (ie if the most exciting/interesting you can talk about after that many years of working is your school experience then you have bigger problems than your CV).
