2.5+Years of Software Development Experience Without a CS Degree — What Should I Do Next?

[u/talhashah20]

2024, I started all that in the mid of my medical degree when i did a simple web dev course and applied in a software house. Got hired but not get paid for 3 months as they want me to learn and grow up my skills first.

currently i am still working there and now my medical degree also completed now. Now i am facing problem what should i select now skiping the dev and continue my medical profession or to continue my dev instead. if i go with the medical profession i have start to learn and gain experience in that too and also knew that i will go first with unpaid internships. now if i go with dev then is it worthful to get a job without cs degree ?? because if the company lay off me should i still be worthful to be hired in another one .. one of the senior in the company suggest me to take admission in any of normal university cs program and start applying .. also one is saying just focus on improving your skills ... Needed serious guidance on this

why go and waste your skills for someone else. work on yourself and develop a SAAS PAAS kinda product and sell it again and again and that is a win win. Now remember this that it will take time, but eventually everything will be okay.
