Nice article, may I reference your article in mine?
I am a bootcamper or learn to code newbies, but I do have a lot of experience in IT and understand the basic concepts before a career change. I mostly agree with you on how the market behaves right now for junior dev, but I do think if we expand the "junior dev" definition a bit, the situation would be different.
Many "junior dev" come from different backgrounds with experiences in other industries ("career changer" I would call that), so they are not necessarily a deficit for a company. For example, if they already have many experiences in project management, negotiation, and leadership, for the jobs in the industry they are not necessary only need people who just can code, but in other aspects as well, right? like the content creator job you got here or technology advocate, documentation creator etc, they are perfectly fine with less experience on code, I guess.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
