For my field of computer science, I'd rather go with degree. That person probably knows the fundamentals more and can learn new technologies, which needs to happen pretty regularly. Someone with just experience doing one or a few things may not have that skill.

Id rather hire an illiterate, inexperienced bum so that I could treat them and pay them like absolute shit.
If they complain I just be like "YOU KNOW YOU DONT DESERVE THIS JOB MOTHER FUCKER!!"

You are very much alone on that, unless the company is trying to get younger.

Now that I think of It, it depends on the college
You need a lot of experience to make up for going to an underwhelming college

College degree is only worth anything during your first 5 years or so. Once you have a few years of experience, most recruiters don't even ask about your degree anymore.

At least, that's the way it works here.


Not true. Every company has a different x years of experience = x degree. A lot of them are 7-10 years for a bachelors

Degree + experience + certifications = best

Or you know, pretty much anyone with adhd or aspergers.
Many of whom could still perform as well as a neurotypical person in most roles.

It always comes down to everyone else being lazy and you being the most driven guy on earth with you.
