How does this happen? I know it's nearly impossible to find people to fill open positions.
- freeone3000 6y agoBecause the so-called entry level positions require an in-depth knowledge of abstract algorithms, proficiency in coding skills, and a working knowledge of source control. There are no jobs for someone who goes to an interview armed only with what they learned in school.
- mywittyname 6y agoCompanies are hiring people to do a job. It makes sense to ensure the people you hire can actually make something. You should have learned all of that in school. If you have a 4 year CS degree and can't do those simple things, then you didn't actually pay enough attention in class and are, in fact, a bad candidate.
