I am afraid lots of companies ask from a developer to know EVERYTHING and refuse to hire if a candidate is not 100% on all those ridiculous requirements. I believe those companies are missing the point which for me is An Engineer/Developer is someone who can learn something required to finish the job at hand.
I believe partly because of this we have all the feelings of inadequacy and imposter syndrome that we read so often about in DEV.TO and other forums.
BTW Great topic and post and Bravo to Dan Abramov for posting such an article to englighten us all.
Thanks Giorgos, hopefully we can have a little bit of choice over companies to join sometimes. At the least the most privileged of us.
I wonder if there's a direct correlation between the huge amount of tech jobs that newspapers and magazine and statistics say that need to be staffed and the quality of the offer. I also wonder if there's a direct correlation between the quality of the offer page (and the knowledge of the person writing it) and the chances to fill such vacancy
