in thread how hard is it to find a job without a degree?

Um, although this isn't a technical question, let's try the same standard debugging questions: What's the input (what are your skills)? What's the expected output (what kind of a job do you want)? What have you tried and where did you have problems? Longer questions get longer answers...

Its easy to turn the focus back on the OP(me), but that would change the question. :/

Do you have experience finding perl programming job without a degree? How hard was it? What was your experience, what were your skills, what did you do, what happened, where, why, advice...?

      Thank you LanX

      Is this a field survey for the YAPC::EU talk about the Perl job market?

      Yes, a field survey or sorts, but not for any kind of talk.

      I also appreciate your response here

      I have read and referenced How (Not) To Ask A Question many times, but this is not XY Problem, I am not the focus, I am not trying to get debugged...

      Is the question confusing somehow?

      Yes its a little broad and vague ... but if I asked it at a perlmongers meeting over drinks, I think I might get a short anecdote "yeah, my cousin just ..."

      Thank you

        Except you're posting anonymously on the Internet. If you're going to a PerlMongers meeting, or a job interview, introduce yourself first.

        No, just lazy, and people are probably being careful not to waste too much time on it.
