    1. I started this comment without a degree

      So you wanted it to be ”I started my first job at NVIDIA without a degree, but I subsequently got a Computer Science Degree which doesn’t change the fact that I did get that job without a degree but I thought I’d mention it anyway!”

      1. I started this comment without a degree to gain attention

        They hired you for your skill, which includes Computer science by the way. Stop capping

  16. Work In Zimbabwe

    It’s unfortunate that in Zimbabwe a Degree means everything, much more than the value that experience and knowledge combined have. In other countries, as long as you can prove that you have what it takes to tackle the responsibilities at hand, then the job is all yours. Manje for one to work in Zimbabwe, haaa you must have a diploma from a professional institute, a bachelor’s degree from a recognised university, a masters degree as well as 5 or more years of work experience, and above all, you must be below the age of 30 hehehe.
