  • How to Get a Job in Programming Without a Degree
    HOW TO GET A JOB IN PROGRAMMING WITHOUT A DEGREE I lost a year of time trying to learn my first programming language. It wasn’t something that was initially apparent at the time either. Most people suggest that one wastes the most time when it comes to productivity and education through the distractions around you. Whether it be video games, or sometimes even the people around you. I’m here to tell you that that couldn’t be further from the truth (and please, do talk to your friends and family!) The biggest waste of time comes from when you think you’re being productive, but you’re simply not. It comes from that feeling of accomplishment that drives you forward into nothing but phantom work. Undirected work can be twice as bad as directed leisure: none of the pleasure, and none of the results. You can’t afford to lose a year of learning if you’re looking to break into a programming job without a degree. When you sacrifice social proof, the stability, and prestige of a college degree, you will often have to work twice as hard just to make it. This guide doesn’t make any promises beyond saying that it will take a lot of sweat and determination to get to where you need to be and that comes from a place of genuine honesty. It comes from a fellow learner who struggled, just as you probably do now, at finding out how to apply your skills to a future career or passion. I didn’t choose the right programming language to learn for a year.

In 2019, the coding bootcamp market grew 4.38%, and we estimated 33,959 people attended and graduated from a bootcamp, according to the publicly-available bootcamp graduate data we gathered. Since we wrote our last report, COVID-19 has changed the way we live, impacting our work, education, and social lives. In the context of work, 55 million people in the United States had already led for unemployment by early August. The pandemic is not isolated to one country—the entire world has been affected. In early 2020, governments ordered lockdowns and social restrictions. To this day, there continue to be stringent lockdowns around the world. The pandemic highlighted the importance of skills development, but the need for upskilling and retraining has been a topic of discussion for years. According to a 2019 World Economic Forum report, 54% 54% of the workforce will need to be reskilled by 2022. This number may be higher due to the businesses that will no longer need as many staff, Reskilling or who will be unable to afford as many staff, when the pandemic ends. 54% of the workforce will require reskilling by 2022.
