The working population is heavily skewed toward non-entry-level candidates, so job listings naturally reflect that.
If an engineer is a junior for the first 2 years and goes on to work for a 40 year career, they’re only junior for 5% of their career.
Expecting a large majority of job listings to be targeted at entry level candidates ignores the reality: Entry level workers are, numerically, a tiny minority of applicants anyway.
- giantg2 5y agoAnd what about mid levels? I think a 30 year career is more common too. So I would think 1/3 of the workers should be entry or mid level. And let's not forget that people do switch stacks and basically start over.
