Thanks. Does Google still demand CS degrees? I ask because I can think of several people doing dev there now that don't.


Not if you're recruited, no. I've had on-sites at Google for coding positions, and my degree is in visual arts! I suspect if you're just sending in an application to the site they may use degree subject just to filter out the insane number of applications they get.


If you're outstanding at your field, Google probably wouldn't mind, but if generally my impression is degrees are highly valued there.
