And if you are not a flirty red head how do you get one? Sure you dont need degrees, on the road university diploma 😂😂😂
Comment from : @stes5429

I never went to college I’ve learned on various jobs I’ve worked as an ETL developer, data migration specialist, and businesses intelligence engineer Most job postings mentioned the degree or relevant work experience
Comment from : @scottthomas5621

Quote you're going to get called back a lot more than you realize quote also quote you can ignore that end quotebrbr Bulshit I've received zero calls back every single it job I've applied for unless you count working internet troubleshooting support for Comcast 1415 years ago as an IT job
Comment from : @motoryzen

You're not gonna get called back every time? How about you're not going to get called at all? That's what my experience has been
Comment from : @someguy53299

You’re white yall grandfathered in lol
Comment from : @JaqueciaRooks-d5h

I hate to burst your bubble, your gender likely had an influence Sorry Not sorry

This works if you walk in there like you have it already - not if you act like there's no way you even finished school The lady in this clip at least looks like she did school

I graduated university, go to job and was so disgust that never again work on my speciality
Comment from : @mikegordon697

So, the old “Fake It Until You Make It… or Until You Get Caught”brbrIf this interview is real, does she not realize this video could be counted as incriminating evidence?
Comment from : @garyhomanick6129

My roommate never finished school and got a job at Apple cuz he was so gifted doing stuff that sometimes I wouldn’t even know how to do

Has she tried being male? They'd laugh a man out the door

As a software engineering bootcamp instructor for the last 4 years, I can undoubtedly tell you, it is because she's a woman I see it every day
Comment from : @cm0te

Thanks for sharing your story It's encouraging to know that certifications can lead to such great opportunities
Comment from : @GabrielHarris_527

It's amazing what you can accomplish with the right skills I wonder if a tool like ResuBot could help make resumes stand out in this competitive job market
Comment from : @JonathanJerryAnderson

I recently heard about a tool called Resubot that helps with resume writing Seems like it could be helpful for anyone looking to break into the tech field
Comment from : @RussellKevinRivera

This video really opened my eyes to the possibilities in tech I'm inspired to start my certification journey too
Comment from : @ChristopherMaryMurphy

Great to see someone succeed without a degree It makes me feel like I can achieve my goals in tech as well
Comment from : @TylerTorres_527

It's refreshing to hear success stories like this I’ve been looking into certifications myself, and it makes me think about how important it is to present your skills well on your resume
Comment from : @AlbertWilson_134

I always thought a degree was a must for a good job, but this video really opened my eyes I wonder how many people are missing out on opportunities because they think they need a degree
Comment from : @JordanJeremyRobinson_471

I love how this challenges the traditional education system Tech certifications are definitely the way to go if you want to get into IT without spending years in college
Comment from : @RogerGeraldMitchell

You’re a woman You show up knowing how to spell your name they give you a job in tech
Comment from : @dfdfdgggjhjjh5081

I appreciate the insight on tech certifications It’s true that having an ATS-friendly resume can make a difference when applying for jobs these days Just a little tip for those trying to break in
Comment from : @LawrenceMichaelBaker

This is so inspiring It's great to see that you can make it in tech without a degree Shows that skills really matter more than paper qualifications

Comment from : @bgBrandiSLIME

You can secure jobs withiut a a degree because they know they can get away with paying you less for the job Which is fine, if thats okay with you

I knew a guy that would sit in classes at Stanford University although he was not a student so he could learn enough to talk his way into a job during the interview He scored some killer jobs that way
Comment from : @jaymzgaetz2006

She knew somebody there
Comment from : @SUNSHINE46-o7l

you know this applies also to the job paradox, and i keep seeing a lot of posts in LinkedIn 😂 just tailor your resume with what you have and ignore the experience requirement ofc don't expect the highest level jobs, but the initial levels is still a good chance 💪🏻
Comment from : @odracir3300

This applies to her, because big companies have quotas for hiring women and minoroties There were experiments done that showed big (several fold iirc) difference in responses between male and female names resumes
Comment from : @Mbeluba

Jobs are no longer given out for merit, they are given out for characteristics You are young and a woman which helps HR get better statics Often HR workers are financially rewarded for hiring non Caucasian older men brI have worked with diversity hires who have won opportunities after just 8 weeks of training over other guys who have 20 years of experience and multiple degrees
Comment from : @altairparis7863

You’re right it’s about dependable, show up everyday , shows interest to learn and be a hard working person

Comment from : @ericfuller6326

What about those certifications online? Are they worth if?
Comment from : @CC_092

Gotta go after it
Comment from : @Fatboys-Unlimited

Very true! I feel like if you match the majority of the other qualifications, you can still potentially get the job It’s really a numbers game
Comment from : @careergrowthpro

Pretty priviledge is so a thing
Comment from : @toxiknao8826

Yeah right go and try it now with no degree 😂
Comment from : @kazakman7772

Corporations and recruiters lie to you about the job An adequate response is to lie to them about your skills
Comment from : @watamatafoyu

Baby if you look like that in USA nobody care for your degree 😅
Comment from : @figotoo

Getting into IT made me realize that it's 'projects that show your skills' that gets you the call

Being a white girl probably helps too 🤷🏾‍♂️

My mother always tells me the same thing but I didn't beleive it Looks like I shouldn't doubt her
Comment from : @temporaryname8905

I've worked for Microsoft and Indeed as a recruiter and to be honest, as a Male, you should have a degree (there are some exceptions eg for very speciailzed programming languges) As companies are obsessed with DEI, they're taking lower qualified and less experienced Females, very often without degrees, to improve their DEI scores My old manager in Microsoft informed me she was told by a hiring manager to ignore Male applicants, and not to reach out to Males on LinkedIn and only to search for, and approach females So, if you're a white Male and want to work for a major tech company, you're basically f*cked, even with the best Bachelors/Masters in the world

Unless you're a stank ass Indian/Asian person with nothing, they're not hiring anyone But this is why most companies are below three stars brbrYou have to stay two steps ahead in order to get anything in life

I have similar experiencebrbrWhen the industry I worked in collapsed during the financial crisis is 2009 I lost my job and the ability to work in the industry I was educated for I needed any job and I noticed that if I removed my degree from my resume their was more interest for me from the job marketbrbrDo NOT go into debt for college It's not worth it And honestly consider if you want to go to college at all

I still believe that education is gold Your teachers Can become your mentors and it’s good to feel that you have accomplished something as well The problem these days are that we don’t have enough - teachers teaching excellence, character building and self development ❤

“You’re going to get called back more than yourbr realize” … sure, and offered less than someone with a degree
Comment from : @timd6303

Ok so she lied to get a job offer

Having an academic degree allows you to have a holistic view of the xosasz We are in a time when any idiot thinks he is prepared because he has a lot of experience in a tool, but that bubble is going to burst
