Unlikely.

My life drastically improved when I limited who i gave a fuck about. People who don't hire me don't make the list.

I'm sure they'll do that, and I'm sure they'll be happy they didn't hire me... and likewise, I'll be happy I'm not working for them.


You won't likely get hired anywhere without a work sample. Wether that be a side project, code from previous employment, or a coding test, you'll have to demonstrate you can do the work.

Many other professions also require work samples. Even salespeople are required to produce metrics from past jobs on the number of sales they made, and get put through practicals where they need to actually do a demo pitch for something.
