Will they hire IT with a management degree?

Question

Career in IT

The essence of the question is this:
Now I am in my 4th year of management, but I have never been interested in it, since the age of 17 I have been interested in computers, software and all that IT, and it is in the IT field that I want to work in the future, but will my future diploma interfere? manager in it?
It will not be difficult to take additional courses, for example, iOS development or UI / UX design, and it is not expensive in finance, but I am still afraid that it is the diploma , and not the projects on github and the certificate of completion of the course, that will be in the foreground , thereby ruining everything.
Am I worrying for nothing, or am I not?
Thanks in advance for your replies and/or reading

Answer 1

Everything I say below is my IMHO. So the industry doesn't need assholes. It so happened that English is needed. A certain mindset. Basic knowledge of algorithms, experience preferred. HR simply searches for keywords in the resume. By the way, managers are also needed, in normal companies there is a development program both horizontally and vertically. So you might want to enter the company in a managerial position and migrate to development or business analytics. Think

Answer 2

In general, no, skills are more important than a diploma, but it all depends on the position and the company, some companies do not take certain positions without a diploma (for example, the same system analyst).
Almost always in the vacancy they write in the requirements, if there is an item "Higher technical education in the IT field", then yes, most likely it is needed :))), but it is far from a fact that they will not be hired without it.
A diploma rather serves as an indicator that a person +- understands how things work, and has not taken specific highly specialized courses, for example, a frontend developer, and simply follows the template, he can blind an application, but absolutely does not understand how it works (I met such people personally, seriously, especially in the web, bitrix, etc.)
You also need a diploma if you are going to start a tractor.

Answer 3

Just say you didn't study at all lol.
Or say that you studied for an IT specialty, no one will win anyway, only your skills are important

Answer 4

And I'm actually a builder by diploma :)

Answer 5

How much does a good specialist cost? Exactly as much as it is valuable in the eyes of the employer.
Each employer evaluates an employee differently: someone needs a diploma, someone needs the required skills, someone needs experience, someone does not pay the employee a lot, etc.
For all this, HR analysts have their own metrics and priorities for recruiting optimal labor resources.
And believe me, they are such that education documents are far from in the first place there.
If you have a diploma (certificates), you can be both smart and a fool.
First of all, these are:
1. The presence of the required skills (testing knowledge with tests),
2. Analytical and logical mindset (the ability to find problems and solve them yourself),
3. Work experience (projects, github, portfolio, etc.)
4. The payment required by the applicant (a very clear indicator of knowledge even without verification, by the way).
5. Availability of documents confirming the possession of the subject area AT THE TIME OF THEIR RECEIVING! (diplomas, certificates, etc.).
Conclusion: where knowledge is not needed, a diploma is needed, and ... vice versa.
