That cannot be grounds for rejecting a job application could it be? What if I do know Lambdas and LINQs and I don't have a computer science 4 year degree? Almost all jobs these days are asking for 4 year college degree and I am only high school with a graduate degree in a different track and I am aged 39 and I wanted to earn in the software field on my own. What gives?
Rather than ranting can you please stay on topic.
