Self taught gen-xers with senior dev/pm exp. Where's my imposter syndrome team?

3•_hugerobots_•5h ago
tldr: it's been a few years since I've run into anyone in the pool without a degree.

quixotic history aside, how rare is it to get contract work as sendev, devops(sysop ftw) or mid-pm at some F50 houses? My offers are usually about 60% of CS holders... but I'd rather do than don't. Could just be the market in Vancouver, probably a skill issue.

I don't have a CS degree. I was born in 1982. Work at Google now as a L5 SWE.

I have a CS degree and they taught class with Pascal, not exactly a marketable skill so I did tech support at first. Every day I still feel stupid about something, I think that just goes with the industry we're in. There is too much going on to be an expert in everything.

I also worked at a couple of F500 companies, they typically want people with Bachelors degrees at a minimum, mostly as a check-mark on their hiring list. If you're contracting with an agency/headhunter house then they may be the ones shortchanging you, not the company doing the contracting.
