There is a popular saying now: 360 lines, all the way to Java!
In fact, this sentence is not an exaggeration. There are too many programmers in various industries now, just for one purpose: high salary!
There are still many high school, junior high, and technical secondary school degree holders who are self-learning programming. Many people have this question: Can they find a job with a high school degree?
The editor looks at this issue like this:
First of all, a high school degree must have no advantage. It is not a good signal for many HRs. I don’t mean to belittle it here. From a certain angle, the degree also proves a person’s ability, so many Large companies now require programmers with at least a college degree or above. For the company, education does not mean that you have a high level of professionalism, but it can at least prove that you have a systematic knowledge base, and it also represents your growth space and the company's cultivation value to you.
How to impress HR without a high degree of education? I think the most convincing thing is project experience. If you have years of work experience similar to your company or have a large public (visible to HR) project, you can also increase HR's interest in you.
Industry exposure, the value of a person In addition to the above, I think your exposure in this industry circle is also the performance of value-added to you, for example: you are a blog garden or CSDN blogger or a blogger who knows well-known columns . It was shown on the resume, and HR was interested in seeing it.
The qualifications on the resume are a threshold. From the perspective of the company’s selection of talents, if you don’t know the technical level of the candidate, you can only judge the ability of the person from the resume. If it is you, it will definitely be It is normal logic to give up the low education first, but this does not mean that people with low education do not have talents.
The reason why companies want to do this is actually very simple. It is very difficult for a company to find a suitable talent. There are many companies whose talents are promoted internally. Therefore, in order to reduce the cost of screening talents, different companies will have different settings. Because there are many people who come to apply for a job, any company never lacks people to apply for.
If too many inappropriate people are screened, the threshold will naturally be raised strategically. The academic qualifications are a good proof. From the academic qualifications, some more reliable people are selected and talents with more training value are selected. Although doing so will accidentally screen out some outstanding people, in contrast, this is also a relatively optimal choice, saving the company a lot of time and labor costs.
If you have classmates or friends, it will be much more convenient. The referral is not to directly enter the company, but does not require cumbersome procedures. If the company does not have particularly high academic requirements, then you only need your skills If you have the ability, you will basically be admitted, so you have to make more HR friends and friends in this industry. After all, no matter what industry you do, it is related to society. At this time, there is no need to worry about academic qualifications.
Really experienced people will not worry about communicating with hr, because they have the technology, so they are more self-confident. In the final analysis, they need to be hard-working. When you reach this level, there is no need to find any skills, seeking truth from facts is the best way. What interview skills are not important at all. Know the least respect for people and treat each other frankly. Work is a two-way choice, and people cannot look down upon themselves.
Finally, it is certainly difficult to find a job as a programmer with a high school degree. However, among the tens of millions of programmers in our country, there are many talents with a high school and junior high school degree, but such a proportion is very small. Don't pay too much attention to the issue of academic qualifications. What do you think of this issue? Welcome to discuss together!
By the way, if you are also learning Java now, and you have encountered any questions about learning methods, learning routes, learning efficiency, etc. during the process of learning Java, you can come and communicate with me at any time: Java technology exchange which gathered a lot of beginners are learning Java technology, any do not understand can always exchange on the inside, the lack of basic introductory video tutorials can come to me directly, I do have documents skirt Java technology this time finishing Some study manuals, interview questions, development tools, PDF documents and book tutorials can be obtained and downloaded by yourself if you need them.
