Career with CS minor

I’ve posted topics about a CS minor in the past but now I have some very specific career oriented questions.

Long story short on my background is that because of unit caps, I can only minor in CS. I really enjoy CS and regret not choosing it as a major in the first place but it is what it is now. Here’s my questions:

I know that a degree in CS from Berkeley is well respected amongst employers, but what about a minor? Will I have trouble getting my foot in the door? Do CS employers even care much about the degree as much as seeing what projects I’ve worked on after seeing that I took my courses at Berkeley? Does my minor being from Berkeley help me at ALL?

Any comments/advice is appreciated.
