There is a shortage of technical specialists in computer programming. It seems that companies are reluctant to train local workers. Startups like to show growth by listing jobs, but they only want "rock stars" so the positions sit unfilled. This saves on labor costs and signals a growing business. It gives an artificial view of the job market however.
- prostoalex 13y agoWhat kind of training would a company offer? CS is one of those disciplines where wealth of materials, books, documentation, videos and working code examples are available online, for free or at pretty reasonable prices. Why would you sign up to waste a day at New Horizons listening to some drone over-explaining stored procedures on a whiteboard?
