I don’t have a degree but I’m good at lying on my resume, it was how I was able to get a job that I maintained for a year. I hate working as does everyone but I’m more vocal about hating it and often get myself into trouble. I don’t have college credits or degrees or any certifications or training. I’m autistic too so most the jobs I’ve had have been extremely uncomfortable. Ideally I would like to work with flowers even though I have no experience I really like them and think it’s quiet but I think these are few and far between. My unemployment runs out soon so I really need to find work but I just don’t know what to do.
No qualifications, no drivers license, no college degree, nothing just a loser NEET
IDK how things are in your area in this regard, but what you need to get a software development job can be made/achieved without a degree.
Namely, you need to make a portfolio of projects on GitHub or analogous platform. Those projects should demonstrate your ability to work with relevant technologies and understanding of some of the relevant concepts.
A way to look up relevant technologies and skills is to go to a job-searching website and read the requirements of relevant jobs.
coding “boot camps” are a thing, and i’ve had several colleagues who’ve emerged from them.
i’m also a non-degreed developer, fwiw.
Note, I am a degreed developer. The only thing that you can’t replicate without a university is working with a supercomputer. Everything else can be studied and done on one’s own and/or with the help of forums (such as Hexbear itself) and developer groups of open-source projects that you can (and should, if you pursue this path) join.
Also, only a few universities even have supercomputers to begin with.
I’ve got an autistic friend who works in a sexshop and really loves it. She says it’s very chill.
Another friend has worked as a night guard for a good while. Very chill, he just reads books and looks at a TV screen while getting paid well.
