Bruh you either got to go to school...or start taking training programs
If I decide in the near future that I don't wanna pursue my JD and LLM I'll look into this...not just for the money but to see if its something feasible and at least somewhat enjoyable.Peep this thread breh. Read it then read it again.

We keep trying to tell y'all nikkas bout this IT shyt but y'all not listening. Here's a link to a Hadoop dev job:
http://www.allstate.jobs/ShowJob/Id/326044/Hadoop Developer
Peep the qualifications and pay attention to the bolded:
You don't NEED a degree, just at least 4 years of experience in IT and you only need 2-3 years of Hadoop experience. Let that sink in breh. In less than 4 years you can be making 140k/yr. No degree required. That's why I try to be so public about how much I make and the fact I'm a college dropout. You can eat like a damn mad man in IT if you just stay on your hustle. How many nikkas you know with just a HS diploma can say they made 200k/yr
- Bachelors or Masters in Computer Science or equivalent experience
- 2-3 years of solid Hadoop experience
- Familiar with Hadoop tools/languages such as Python, Pig, Hive, Hadoop Streaming, Sqoop, Oozie, etc
- Solid understanding of MapReduce and how the Hadoop Distributed File System work
- Good written and verbal skills
- Understanding of other ETL tools (Ab Initio/Informatica/Talend) is beneficial
- Understanding of Hadoop Infrastructure is preferable but not required
- Hands-on experience with related/complementary open source software platforms and languages (e.g. Java, Linux, Apache, Perl/Python/PHP, Chef, Puppet)
- Understanding of Relational Databases (RDBMS), SQL & No-SQL databases
But yeah it'll mostly be about the money

asians got IT on lock. it a couple of years it going to be a wrap
Which is why we need to let black folks know so they can get in while there's still room. The shyt is still wide open breh. I get literally hundreds of emails a month from recruiters wanting me to apply for jobs making anywhere from 60-200k/yr.

I can't speak on developers for the network/server side you don't even need school or a training program. Pass the A+/CCNA/MCP cert and keep applying for entry level IT jobs. You buy the book, study, then take the exam.
Once you get your first gig you can pretty much decide where in IT you want your career to focus on.
Im still in school I can take some CS classes, maybe even add a minor..
im sure I can learn it on my own and take a test to show im certified or something...
I can learn it on my own if I have to, I just need a point in the right direction on what I should start learning first

What is Hadoop used for exactly? 
I've heard it mention a few times before. This big data, data science seems to be really taking off.

yall need any system admins? Need to expedite my move to the A
If you can, take an intro to programming course as an elective. Assuming the course doesn't suck for some reason (awful professor, crappy assignments, etc.), it'll give you a good idea of whether you want to pursue it or not. When it comes to the software development side of things, it's more about what you know in terms of programming languages/platforms/etc. and your experience. Certs don't matter as much as a degree, but even a CS degree isn't exactly a necessity
I was originally planning to go to law school, but took an intro CS class, realized software development was right up my alley and haven't looked back
Ok and what routes exactly are there to take? Cant you just learn it all? I know im asking dumb questions bear with me im just trying to gather info before I go up to them folks at LSU looking stupid
