You may not like it, but for the vast majority of programming jobs globally, that is pretty much the whole job.
- koliber 2y agoYou are correct. There is a need for that kind of work. I wish there was a way to differentiate these different kinds of develops. Perhaps “integrations developer” vs “software engineer.”
- dennis_jeeves2 2y agoLet me add a note for for you - the onus is on you find if someone can learn the task. That is what is a great interviewer does. As masterj pointed out, a really large portion of jobs ( more than three forth) out there won't be nearly anywhere near the complexity of the task you mentioned.
