Sorry, this is a little off topic. The on-topic groups seemed to be mostly
spam bots chattering between themselves and I think people here are likely
to be able to answer my questions.
If I search on Monster.com for IT jobs I see a lot of demand for
experience/knowledge of PHP as well as SQL, XHTML, C#, etc.
If I do any sort of CS or SE degree I'm likely to only briefly skim over
these languages if I'm lucky and learn about things such as RAD, UML,
lifecycles, etc. instead. I've very rarely seen these "skills" come up in
job adverts.
So, if someone wants an IT job where does one learn the skills mentioned
in job adverts? In your own time? Then why go to university and do a CS/SE
degree?
People who do some kind of programming job: did you find a CS/SE degree
helpful in getting a job? And did you find you learned skills that helped
you with your current job?
TIA
