Is education important or ability important in software testing

In fact, for IT Industry , It has always been the working platform that many people look up to , A few years ago, many people thought that you were working on computers and that you were doing IT Yeah , How wonderful you are , What a bull , How powerful , Slowly, for those who do not have a bachelor's degree , They think that IT The industry must be an undergraduate. There is really no way for people to make rigid requirements , Although now many companies have relaxed the restrictions , But I still go around with my education , A lot of companies , perhaps HR, Headhunters will screen your online resume , Of course, undergraduate course is a priority , Most of them won't look at your project experience at first sight , Your mastery skills , They'll check your education below , Your highest education , Your graduate school , And then feel appropriate , Will be very eager to send you a ： Pro - , We are recruiting software test engineers recently , Can you check your undergraduate education information network , A lot of kids know IT You will get a false certificate after the water depth of , But when this sentence came out , Where is the embarrassment .

What we can't deny is , Undergraduate course is really better than junior college students , Personal qualities , Comprehensive strength should be strong , Otherwise he won't be able to go to college, will he , But we can't deny the strength of junior college students , In school, you may have a better ability to accept things , But access to society is at the station , Just doing things , Work for the company , Create value for the company , If you still feel like you're on top , Then you must be just a decoration , Software testing industry , I pay more attention to the communication with customers , Understanding of needs , Business process , It is also a very important and critical step in the company , Many companies do not have a complete testing process , I think the test is to paddle and fish , So they think it's just a little bit , Why not find an undergraduate , Ability almost doesn't matter , Pay less , If he is willing to learn from me, it is OK to cultivate him slowly , This is actually wrong , Many people rely on their rich project experience , And understanding of software testing methods , At first sight, I didn't look at his educational background , I even appreciate that he overshadows him , I saw something shining in him , It is not the degree that is the prerequisite , Education is the key to success , Software testing depends on experience , More project experience , The faster you get started , More defects are found , Solving problems for the company , Help the company grow fast , Create benefits for the company , You don't pay people to come here as vases , Is to invite people to do things .

One of my predecessors said very well , If I interview someone , I'll see him at three , First of all, I will look at his comprehensive strength , Mastery of the business of the previous job , Do a test , I don't even understand any business , That proves that you don't understand the customer's needs , Many modules and between modules , There will be some logic , There will be some associations, which also need to be tested , Eat through the needs , Reasonable communication , Understand the business . Second, I will look at his attitude towards the job , Whether he loves this industry , Whether he is willing to take time to settle down when he encounters difficulties , Instead of being impetuous , When working, I will study from a problem-solving perspective , The third is communication skills , Because of the nature of the work, conflicts with the development side cannot be avoided , At this time, it depends on how you resolve and coordinate , And with the product manager , Effective communication with customers , Want to have patience , Testing is often repetitive and boring , Unless automation is used , Now many companies do not have a complete automation model , There is no big project , See if he is careful , This is also a good thing for girls to do tests , Many details are also the most critical , Those implicit requirements , All ambiguous requirements should be paid attention to , Defining a person first does not depend on academic qualifications , Millions of people in the world , Doing software testing is also the most important , If the rules die , That will only lead to instability , Employees frequently change jobs , Real talent is buried .

The above views are personal , A little friend has different opinions to say , I have no malice , thank you ~
