Depending on the country in question, SWE jobs might be quite scarce, so companies can afford to be picky about the candidates.

You have outliers in both ways (companies that don’t care and companies that will ask you about your uni grades) but the general sentiment in my (EU member) country is that you do need at least a two if not a three year degree to get a decent SWE job. Most of the time it’s explicitly listed as a requirement in job listings too.
