I am thinking of doing freelance web development and I’m currently building my portfolio for it. However, I don’t have any degree at all and I live in an expensive country. My friend however says that I still might have a chance if I make good quality stuff. Right now I’m even working on creating a video platform website similar to YouTube (with it being fully functional) just to impress potential customers.
Would that work?
I’m in a different field of engineering, but my first thought is that because of “AI” there’s going to be/is a massive flood of “freelance developers” and it’s going to be even harder than before to stick out of the no-diploma no-pro-experience (full remote?) crowd. Maybe freelancers here can give a better picture.
