Can someone get a programming job without a CS degree ?

Question

If yes then how the employer will get to know that we know this much about programming ! what to show them ? 😮😮😮

Answer 1

Definertly! But without a degree in some form of CS, you would need strong references, meaning that you have public projects and programs to prove your skills. Google (and probably several other companies) has a coding test when employing new staff. The way this works is that they will give their potential employers tasks during the interview that they need to solve on a whiteboard, without any syntax aid. They will then write and compile the code that was written to see of it works. There are probably other noumerus ways to get a job without a degree in programming (although a degree will help a lot), the only thing you will have to worry about is strong references to show your skill.

Answer 2

definitely, if you have enough knowledge then yes, you should be able to prove your abilities somehow, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a CS degree
