A few thoughts.
* The minimum requirements to become a software developer: pass a 30 minute interview.
* The baseline standard competency for software development: none.
That said, hiring for software employs maximum bias and minimum training. What that effectively means:
* Software developers, according to HN, generally hate all uniform measures of competence except computer science bachelors degrees.
* Software developers frequently believe in their preferences without supporting evidence and outside their experience.
* Decisions in software are most frequently entirely ad hoc.
* Writing, in natural language, is a rarity in software.
Plan accordingly.
