I have learning disabilities like dyslexic and adhd but I'm sick and tired of dead end jobs. I'm going to be 36 on the 24th of July and especially after seeing such inspiring videos, I'm more ready then ever to delve into something entirely new and learn some new skills. I may feel very intimated and who knows, i may decide tech isn't for me, but how will i know if i don't try?

Hey @RealChrisSean, thanks for the video. Fantastic content! Quick question, so when you hunt for clients you look for just web development positions (ie: websites , e-commerce, etc...) or front-end development as well? And you aim for projects with a clear beginning and an end or ongoing work? I ask cause most of the open positions out there are for permanent work to do long term maintenance or something... Thanks again mate!

I have a B.S. degree in something completely different only to realize last year, tech is where it is and want to learn to code. I learned overtime I love to solve problems. Tech has a lot of problems to solve and changes everyday. I currently work at a job where I am physically using my body 95% of the time and use my brain 5% of the time. I am tired physically than mentally after 1 year of graduating from school. I am ready to learn something different and make more money than those who are lazy or even tell me what I need to do each day.

A degree alone is not enough, it takes having skills and mindset to go past the minimum and learn around your personality. A degree can keep you from starting from the bottom when moving around the corporate space if a person has the communication and articulation of theit skillset.

And that’s a harsh reality if true, but rather than complaining about why the marketplace demands certain things, people should just adapt!

@@RealChrisSean lol that’s great, I mean I was thinking I’ll just get this degree so I can have an easier time getting a job. Once I have my first actual job I can get real experience, and perhaps if need be I get a masters degree if I really wanna specialize in AI (companies do like to see a masters in CS for ML AI positions). Personally though I’m more interested in the business approach to tech, particularly the SaaS route. Considering you can start a SaaS with NoCode, the possibilities are endless imo and I can definitely expand down the line once my coding skills are sharper. Moral of the story is, people should look at what the marketplace demands when it comes to their skills in tech, as the landscape changes rapidly. College is lagging behind when it comes to the skills you need to understand to ultimately succeed. CS majors need to understand this!

In tech it always comes down to skills, knowledge, and connections. People are breaking into GovTech with security and networking based certifications, plus getting their security clearances. Some people can be in unrelated positions in companies and get promoted internally onto engineering teams too. Both college degrees and bootcamps leave a lot to be desired for getting people 100% job ready for tech, a rigorous 2 year trade school type program for software engineers would be far superior imo.

I want to give my 2 cents on this. I just enrolled in community college just so that I can get a college degree. The problem isn't the degree itself, the problem is just the job market that's going on right now. Regardless if people take the degree or not, what is factual is that you must put in the work to get the result. I believe that so many people wants the results now, that when they realize how long it will actually take to "get good" at it. They give up and move onto something else. To me, there's a lot of benefits of getting a college degree. Of course, there are classes that are not related to the degree plan, but I have learned so much on how to do research. How to think logically, how to write down the problems and figuring out where the problem lies. All of these things are not talked about in Udemy, ZTM, or anything else from what I have seen. Are Udemy and ZTM bad courses? Of course not. But from what I learn, they just teach you the syntax and "plug this here" and "console.log()" that. It doesn't teach how to actually face the problem face on. I stand with CS Degree is 100% worth it, and it also helps with resume, getting interviews, internships etc etc. It is an investment in yourself and for the future. Because regardless if you get the degree or not, it is a commitment to learning how to code, how to solve problems, how to research problems etc etc.. Right now, use the resources that we have available and take advantage of what we have today. Not everyone who works hard is going to get rewarded, but those who have been rewarded has worked hard.

My aunt has always assured me that college degrees are an investment for our future. These days, some aren't as good as others but if you can get a degree in a skill set that can lead to potentially good careers, it's so much more of an investment. I'm considering going back to school. I'm 35 and figure now is the time to really zero down, learn some new things and see what I can do. Life is too short, we might as well live it!

@@sevrinaanastasia Definitely do it if that is what you what you wish! Agree, some degrees are not in-demand or not worth putting the time into compared to many others. That I can agree with you on. But there are degrees that are worth pursing and expanding. Like for Computer Science, its not just a "software engineer" career that you can only take. There's much more fields and the IT industry is so vast. Regardless, do what is best for you and what you truly believe it is worth. But take the executive decision and start making progress. We only get 75 years to live, why not use every single day to improve on a skill or improve our daily lives? Start today or soon, because a year can go by and you can either make a year of progress or none at all. I'm not trying to sound like a "self-improvement" guru. I do not believe in them. But this is advice I wish I had when I first started out or when I was unsure of what I wanted to do with my life.

I did internships, went to camps, got into college early. But when I turned 18 I had a psychotic break. My brain never recovered and I all the hard work I put in was lost. I had to find a new college because my gpa was so tanked I couldnt even pursue CS at my original college. I had a job for a while which is more then any of my doctors expected. Everyone has told me to give up on my dream and I see why now. I'm not good enough, I'll never be good enough. I had it at one point but its gone and I have to make my peace with it.

@@RealChrisSean Relying on a CS degree alone isn’t enough, but cs graduates stand a better chance than boot camp grads for two reasons. 1.)

It’s a safer bet for companies to go for a cs graduate than someone who took some udemy course and finished it in 3 months. I’m not trying to pick a fight, I’m just sick of people saying that you don’t need a college degree to get into tech because it’s just not true.

@@RealChrisSean I agree. A CS degree alone isn’t a requirement, but it will significantly help in terms of getting that first job, especially through career fairs that colleges offer. Not everyone can afford it, but that’s why stuff like scholarships and FAFSA exist. In certain fields in tech, you pretty much need a degree or you won’t even get looked at. Not everyone can learn as fast as you do, and many people do need structure and learn the right information, which is found at college. I’m sure your experience can vouch for you, but for the vast majority of people looking to get started, they need anything and everything that will give them an edge. A majority of people who can’t land a job in tech, degree or otherwise, likely haven’t either put in the hours to understand and learn what is needed, they don’t know what they’re doing or learning, and haven’t tried gaining tangible experience through internships,which again can be remedied by college. But who am I to judge? You seem to know better than I.

You really need to build up your network of industry contacts and savings to invest into the business and secure yourself first. It helps to establish yourself in the industry first, this gives you an edge pitching yourself to clients too. You will not make much money starting out because you're lacking the 3 things clients really care about: testimonials from others you've performed work for, strong portfolio of projects, and strong reputation in the industry through word of mouth and accomplishments. Chris worked for several years and positioned himself to be able to strike out on his own. If you produce content demonstrating your skills or a blog it helps too.
