You can do Bootcamp no need for a degree. Alternatively, you could teach yourself.

I’ve been reading that bootcamps can be disregarded or not taken seriously by employers, and idk how i would sell myself on a cv by self teaching ?

Just learn code online.

How would that make me an attractive candidate to graduate scheme or entry level jobs tho? Would I need to show proof. Also if it’s that simple to enter a software engineering role, why do so many people spend money on computer science degrees or bootcamps
