How do employers feel about distance learning as a programmer?

Question

Career in IT

I want to go to work as a programmer, I know python, Django. Many vacancies require higher education or incomplete higher education, in connection with this I think to go to the correspondence department on 09.03.01. I heard that employers treat part-time students badly, is this true? If so, which university is better to go to full-time (paid)? PS I have no work experience.

Answer 1

any adequate employer always treats any form of education well ... it’s not dependent on the form of new knowledge, it’s always good ... however, the attitude of the students themselves to learning is not always unambiguous, therefore, in most cases, how you feel about your education, so will your employer treat your education...
...convince the employer that your education is of value to you and it will be of value to the employer...

Answer 2

depends on the situation, adequate - normal, they may not need it at all

Answer 3

In the case of programmers, education only speaks of your ability to learn. In serious universities (at least, it used to be so) it was simply impossible to hold on if you did not know how to study. And this was an additional positive characteristic (+ to learning). In other cases, you just have to prove otherwise that you are quite capable of learning. Worse, when there is none at all - a lot of questions at once.
As for the rest, it doesn’t matter at all, in my opinion, what kind of education. For in IT everything is so dynamic that any curriculum begins to become obsolete already at the stage of compilation :)

Answer 4

It all depends on the employer and the specifics of work and employment.
If everything is official and accountable to the law, then most likely you will be able to be accepted on other rights than ordinary employees. As far as I know, there are also nuances with taxes (at least in Ukraine) that are unfavorable for employers.
It is best to check directly with the companies you are applying for.
