  1. Most companies are old school. No degree equates to u not capable = to giving them a reason to pay low salary.

    Civil sector static board too ain’t it.

    Tat paper qualification is the book cover they judged. So wat if a non degree proven himself. His salary will still rise from a low base salary compare to a degree.

    Job advertised also probably still link degree diploma to a certain salary benchmark. The other angle is a non degree is an ikan bilis in an ocean of degree holders era.

  2. Hey, I just checked out this piece on whether you need a degree to succeed, and I really vibe with the writer’s perspective. It’s interesting how they highlight that success isn’t just about having a piece of paper but about skills, experience, and networking too. Totally get that the world’s changing fast and what’s valued today might not even matter tomorrow.

    So, it got me thinking: If you’re grinding hard on your passion project but don’t have a formal degree, do you think you stand a shot at breaking through in a competitive job market? It’s like the hustle culture is real, and I wonder if employers are truly open to looking beyond traditional qualifications.

    I asked this because it speaks volumes about how we define success today. Many of us are in the grind, trying to figure it out without the safety net of a degree. Would love to hear what everyone thinks—are degrees becoming overrated in our fast-paced world?
