Say you encounter a resume that has no degree (diploma only) but the person is the founder of a SaaS with some good amount of customers and a couple of thousands of GitHub stars, would you hire this person?
The reason I’m asking is I just don’t know what to do right now and I know there are many like me.
Should I continue on investing in my work experience, or is it worth it to go for a bachelor’s?
My opinion is you’d rather work for an employer who understands that experience is miles better than a degree.
To flip that, someone who thinks you HAVE TO have a degree in order to do the job their hiring for (minus a few niche jobs) is likely not the most creative or flexible person in the world and probably feels that because they got a degree, everyone else who works around them should have to as well.
