I know several brilliant people in IT who have no degree, it’s not that uncommon. In IT, you have to produce, and a degree (even in Computer Science) will not really make a difference one way or another.

You’d be surprised.. some HR journal must have said something about requiring degrees being a good idea. I’ve never seen more jobs in IT that are requiring degrees. Often times those requirements are firm enough to prevent a discussion on the subject from coming up..

It’s VERY bad in IT right now.. some people will say it’s fine and they probably have jobs.. in the coming months it will be obvious to everyone how bad it is.. lots of layoffs to come and many people cruising along on unemployment..

Personally, I’ve sent my resume out 78 times(counted yesterday) in the last couple of months and I’ve gotten probably 3 automated responses! In the past I got every job I interviewed for, so I’m very qualified and interview well.. the employers are just being barraged by resumes so no matter how good you are, it’s hard to get in. The companies that will likely respond are the ones paying $15/hr for what normally pays $80,000-120,000!

Try contracting.. use Craigshelper and check off ‘telecommute’ you can find quite a few good contracts jobs remotely that way – that’s how I got my current contracts.

If I was going I’d probably try this:

Jalapeno Beer Cheese
A rich soup sure to knock your socks off! Served in a toasted sourdough bread bowl.
