That is how my experience was. If you don't go the often traveled route of getting a CS degree, you're a lesser known quantity. By that I mean, you are more uncertain from the eyes of an employer. You also can't easily measure yourself against CS graduates, nor can you leverage the kind of network you may have had if you had, say if you took that major. Out of my 100-ish Facebook friends that I consider to know to some reasonable degree in person, only one is a software engineer, like me, and he lives very far away. Being self-taught is really hard, especially if you do not have any peers that you can learn from. |
