- choppaface 7y agoIf you search the article for the string "New college grads" the author indicates he received multiple emails from new grads claiming they couldn't find jobs. Personally I've seen lots of new grads with 4-5 offers and many who were unable to find jobs out of college despite tons of interviewing.

I am probably more humble observing people over all these years to admit that anyone can be a programmer given the opportunity and the heart / zest to dig deep be thorough with the solution. The part of recent grads getting job is more related to market conditions, back in 99 recruiter would be happy to hire anyone who have attended the programming 101 while in 2001-2002 no one even wanted to talk to 5 -8 yr experience candidates right after the market crash
