Hi Jake, Thank you Jake for this video. Where should a person look if they want to expand their skills in authentication and testing? Is there resources where I should be looking?
@@rahi7339 CS degree is preferable in all software / web dev jobs. You will always have a stronger advantage with a degree. I have 5 years of experience at companies like Microsoft / Google and have had applications rejected because I don't have a degree. With only a Bootcamp as experience getting a job is not impossible, but it is very difficult.
I don't have a degree, my only formal education is a coding bootcamp. I made this video discussing how I got into SWE th-cam.com/video/shFQhVdAbP0/w-d-xo.html hope that helps!
Thank you for the video + context was very helpful. Studying to get into this program right now.
Great to hear! Take it seriously, make sure it's right for you and if so - study hard! best of luck 👍👍
Hi Jake,

Hello, I'm not sure about authentication or testing, you may be able to find a course on that on udemy or pluralsight.
isnt the projects important for getting job? why would you say noone look at it?
In my experience projects are not reviewed by HR or discussed during interviews. Its nice to have but not something I would focus on.
@@jakemarquez3118 then what matters? how they choose you for interviews considering if you have zero experience?
@@rahi7339 educational experience like college and internships, skills, cover letter
@@jakemarquez3118 so they do take bootcamp seriously? I'm thinking of doing codesmith seriously, will I have disadvantages since I have no cs degree?

Simple criticism, you should preface the video saying that you got a job because of your degree, otherwise this video is terribly misleading
