I am thinking of doing freelance web development and I’m currently building my portfolio for it. However, I don’t have any degree at all and I live in an expensive country. My friend however says that I still might have a chance if I make good quality stuff. Right now I’m even working on creating a video platform website similar to YouTube (with it being fully functional) just to impress potential customers.
Would that work?
Or larger companies start to notice the large gaps in security affecting their bottom line due to reviews with large lines of code getting what’s a rubber stamp at best.
I’m guessing this will take years though, companies tend to not care unless they lose large contracts and are happy to throw individual managers or directors under the bus to appease a client.
