I've had similar experiences interviewing candidates, but it's been across the age range. I've never interviewed anyone who has forgotten how to code, but I have interviewed a lot of people who never learned in the first place.
- MontyCarloHall 5y agoIf this is the case, then it would only compound the problem. Early 20s and never actually learned to code? If you stumble through the interview, a company might still take a chance on you, attributing your apparent lack of coding ability to being junior. 40+ and never learned to code, yet “fell upwards” into a management role that doesn’t require any actual technical skills? Good luck getting hired anywhere else; when your lack of actual skills becomes apparent during the interview, it will not be charitably brushed aside.
