- dailykoder 2y agoSure, and I can only judge from what I'm hearing, but the internet does make it sounds like it's very hard to find programming jobs as a graduate or junior. I don't know what the truth is. Maybe it's just a minority crying out loud because they don't get hired at FAANG.
- jangxx 2y agoDon't forget to take both of those stats with a grain of salt though. The US has a lot of gig workers which are not always counted correctly or the same and Germany has a large low-wage sector, where people are employed but earn less per month that they would get in unemployment benefits, and so the state pays the difference.
