| Topic | Is it realistic to think that a coding job could be attained without any formal |
| wolfy42 10/21/20 1:19:57 AM #8: | I was offered a few coding positions back in the day because I coded on Muds in C++ with a bunch of other people (mostly professional coders who did it for fun on the side). I had not at that point gotten my AA in info tech, or had any formal training, though I did create a few games myself when I was in elementary school (but didn't sell them or anything). Basically if you find a way to work with other people in the industry and they see/like your work, get along with you well, are able to interact with your code (you leave good rem messages etc, though I guess with call outs that would be less important now), you will probably get offered jobs over time. Then again that was like 30 years ago, who knows if that is still possible now (probably not from coding on muds at least lolz). But I guess creating your own apps/games etc could also showcase your coding skills etc and possibly get you a job today. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."
