Not The Onion

Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

That's for relatively fresh programmers, and in particular BSc or BA.

If you have years of experience, it's the opposite, companies fight each other to get you.

So:

The market is HOT right now.**

higher skilled workers are always in higher demand, that's not really dependent on the market

Depends on the skill. I doubt there are too many experts in punch card computing that are in demand at the moment.

Pretty sure there is a bank somewhere looking for that skill still.
