Comment I took 10 years to finish my CS degree - doin fine (Score 1) 1280
Let's be blunt here - the only job your new college degree really matters at is YOUR FIRST (maybe the first 2 or 3). That first job will probably suck, but it's entry level and you are competing with non-degreed people with experience.
The key is that you do good in the classes you have (mostly A's and maybe a few B's), and then perform very well in your job for a few years. Employers and headhunters look at the months of on-the-job experience with a particular technology; the degree often times is to fill the checkbox for the HR folks.
Just stay flexible and don't marry a particular technology or language. In this bussiness, things are always changing, and you will always be learning the latest technologies and methodoligies if you like staying employed.
