Story: UK tech students farm out coursework to India
Another reason why IT degrees are becoming less and less relevant
More and more employers are becoming more savvy about who they hire. Just having a degree in the industry doesn't (and shouldn't) count for as much as it used to.
Know experience/portfolio of past work (especially in webdevelopment) and a clear understanding of best practices and knowledge in interviews is more important in weeding out the good on paper and from the good in practice.
I just wonder how much of it goes on in the real world where developers could just as easily take on jobs their are not competent/skilled enough to do and wing it by outsourcing more difficult assignments.
