I'm currently looking for a junior dev role. The issues I'm finding is
A: They expect you to have 4 years of experience or be a college degree. I have neither in software development or
B: They are these terrible "apprenticeships" where they also expect you to have 3-4 years experience, train you for 3 months on their technology stack, and make you jump through flaming hula hoops.
I see a lot of comments talking about how you train juniors and then they leave but I'm skeptical of that. From my personal perspective, I'm not looking to get trained then jump to SF for a 150k a year job. Pay me a decent wage, give me ongoing feedback, and make sure career progression is laid out and I'm good with that.
