How do you get all these different jobs? I’d just hear: you don’t have enough experience in framework/language X.

It was an interlude, so not the normal leetcode grind.

I knew various people who needed an MVP made for their startup, and with a little bit of familiarity people will let you do things you haven't done before.

Networking networking.

I know people I'd bring in to help no matter what the framework is because i trust them. And some people would do the same with me if they needed help.

I'm assuming they are working for startups, typically startups do not require the same level of deep domain expertise as big firms.

[tekknik]

Absolutely incorrect. Big firms hire “jack of all trades” devs as well to fill the gaps of the “experts”. I’ve worked with masters degree holders at very large firms that can’t even explain how DNS works. Deep domain knowledge puts you in a niche from my experience.

You remove your desire from making the absolute amount of money, then devote yourself to get compensation via experience. Do this for some years. You’ll end up in a better place with no degree than those with one.
