I am thinking of doing freelance web development and I’m currently building my portfolio for it. However, I don’t have any degree at all and I live in an expensive country. My friend however says that I still might have a chance if I make good quality stuff. Right now I’m even working on creating a video platform website similar to YouTube (with it being fully functional) just to impress potential customers.
Would that work?
how to get a job? * no degree, only some projects, what would you recommend?
In my experience software employers don’t really care about degrees. If you can code well that’s all you really need. If you have no previous employers you might need some personal projects to demonstrate that skill though.
(At least that’s how it was before AI. I have no idea now… By all accounts entry level is fucked.)
applying to jobs, learning in the meantime
