Let’s say you have a requirement for 5 years in a particular language.
Would you rather hire a developer with 20 years experience but only 3 in the language you want, or would you rather hire the guy who has 6 years experience in the language you want and that’s it?
Personally, I’d hire the former every single time, even though he didn’t have the requisite 5 years in the language.
- vmception 5y agoMy experience is that people expect an uncanny ability from the former, as opposed to just having never retired or changed a job by then. Pretty much better to reduce the years on the resume.
