What's an IT profession that is realistically possible to self-study for and become proficient enough in to get employed within a year?

By employed I mean get a job in the industry either offline or online. Ideally something that would highly likely remain in-demand in the near future.

I went in with a 4 year degree, the other grad next to me went in with a 6 month kinda masters. You can pull it off if you try hard enough and know your shit, wish I'd known that before I wasted so long at uni.

6 month kinda masters

What's that, diploma mill?

I assumed they misunderstood how a 4 1/2 year master's program works, since the masters part is technically only half a year on paper. But I don't think that necessarily makes sense in context...
