>I've just been applying to developer positions that don't require senior and prefacing my cover letters with the fact that I am in fact very new to professional coding. Maybe I should write a cover letter like that. I've worked in an unrelated tech field for almost a decade and I have never gotten a response for a jr position in the year or so I've been applying for them. I have, however, in spite of the fact that my resume indicates I'm new to programming, gotten a bunch of calls/emails for Sr. positions that am not nearly qualified for.
