This is an extremely interesting article, and a matter I think about often.
I've seen people quickly becoming "senior", maybe because as a senior the salary is higher (you also have more responsibilities though).
I think that to become a senior you need solid problem-solving and leadership skills.
You can develop these skills through experiencing a wide range of business problems and working in different settings. Senior engineers know why you should do/use something instead of something else and know how to justify their reasonings.
I'm not sure if 2 years are enough. Probably not.
Also, I believe that this is a problem partially caused by HR (or whoever creates the job descriptions). Some job descriptions are INSANE. 🤣
You mean the classic "we want a junior with the experience of a senior, oh, and we are paying an intern salary".
Although... I'm more inclined to blame other developers, I see many are lazy and don't want to take care of more junior people.
Also others who believe in doing, even the more trivial stuff, themselves instead of passing those to people who should be doing those (juniors and mediors).
And when you have just seniors... then you're being wasteful having seniors just to center divs and make CRUDs.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
