I'm currently attending a school for game programming. I'm already in my 2/3rd year. As of now, I know 100% that once I graduate I will not get a job anywhere. I have come to the conclusion that my school is barely teaching us anything.
I've been doing a lot of research on the internet. I have accumulated some hope in regards to getting a job without a degree. My program will only give me an advanced diploma. I've been told that my chances of being selected are lower than CS student. But by researching more and more on Google and reading people's comments and those who work in the industry I've come to realize that the most important thing, the hiring manager is a complete idiot who doesn't know anything about programming and only looks to see what school you applied to, is your value. You can go to the most prestigious school in the world but in the end, except for a few cases, it is your value that will determine whether you'd get a job or not. And by value I mean what you can give.
