Rob, I completely agree. <div><br></div><div>It's pretty much the last thing that we look at, what's far more important is experience with relevant tech and a good code portfolio.<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>

I do wonder why an awful lot of jobs require degrees in Computer<br>
Science or related fields, before even getting your foot in the door.<br>
I worked in ISP and Web Development for 12 years and I studied Music<br>
Technology, and I've worked with extremely capable people who didn't<br>
even go to university. So it doesn't really seem to matter.<br>
