I left tertiary education having studied software design. I was told in high school that IT was the future. Proceeded into unemployment with employers ignoring me due to lack of experience (which should also be illegal - it's not far removed from NIMBY). A degree is no guarantee of walking into a good job. But you're not me, so you'll probably do better.
Sorry to hear that. I work for the government, so I won't run into the same issues with employers ignoring me (if I meet the requirements, they legally have to interview me). The main thing holding me back is that a lot of the higher paying positions require a degree or equivalent experience.
