I was never entry level. First programming job was senior. Like really senior. No idea why they hired someone brand for senior. I guess for a while I explained it as “senior” and “junior” not necessarily being descriptive. Now I think it’s that I had related experience (I had been a teacher, and training/mentoring is a big part of the job.)
