Well I was judging by the results mostly. Got the cold shoulder deep in the hiring process from a lot of them.
I totally agree with the sentiment about the tech trends. It's particularly evident in anything frontend which is why I mostly focus on backends and reliability.
- cmrdporcupine 6y agoKeep trying with Google. And you might have better luck applying as an SRE than a SWE. SRE job description is pretty serious engineering at Google.
- wyclif 6y agoThis is a good point that I'd like to see someone with experience expand on, maybe in a blog post: why backend or DevOps is better for older devs than front end. My TL;DR version would be that front end, especially JS, is a fast moving target. Backend dev is based more on time tested and reliable platforms that incentivize solid framework and design choices.
- nonines 6y agoYes, backend seems to be a little slower paced. With the notable exception of cloud-native platforms, especially kubernetes ecosystem where seems to be one new framework every week.
