This seems to be how hiring works in my experience. And today, there's many more roles one can apply too, and different level of schooling one can get. For example, you have System Engineer roles, or Web Dev, or QA Engineer, etc. You've got a lot of bootcamp education options to teach these as well. And if you look at the hiring process, it's all skill based, how good is your knowledge of data structures, algorithms, system design, frameworks, and programming languages. Experience, resume and portfolio is almost completely overlooked, at least beyond the initial HR screen.
