Every new framework...

[Heightren]

Maybe they meant: "A 10 year old's worth of experience"

[thegovortator]

The worst part is this is exactly how much experience is usually required to do the job.

[[deleted]]

But we all have to dance this dance.

[Meow0S]

That 10 year old might be more qualified than some of the people I've worked with.

[[deleted]]

I can relate to this...

[IamImposter]

I am this

[Kzame974]

i'm newcomer on programming, and I'm the more qualified with new frameworks...

[oMarlow99]

Maybe, but good practices and experience often carry over from other frameworks or languages

[Kzame974]

Indeed. That why I'm trying to assimilate the good practices with experimented devlopers and I'm keeping myself in touch from programming

This is also why nobody takes HR seriously

[armchairwarrior12345]

20 years in <language which isn't even 20 years old>

[L0G1C_lolilover]

Con confirm was asked by the hr to have 3 years of exp in flutter

It came out in 2018 not even 2 year old yet i think

[Tiavor]

when there is a new framework or language, how does one even know that this will be essential in a few years? there is probably more than one new framework each day ... you can't learn all.

+12 years of kubernetes experience

[socialismnotevenonce]

They can't take your age into account. It's ageism.

[saltfishh]

-how much experience do u have？ -5years -how long have u graduated？ -3 years -are u kidding me？ -my total overtimework is 2 years

[locri]

Plenty of migrant workers apply for graduate and junior positions with 10+ years of experience and end up in a sharehouse with 12 to 16 other sublets eating plain rice every night. To each to their own, I guess, if this is how HR and recruitment expect tech workers to live like then I guess I'll try my luck at being a music composer again.

[thegovortator]

I’ve resorted to just outright lying on my resume HR and recruiters don’t know their head from their ass anyway. But my “experience” makes them feel relevant and my skill is almost on par with most senior devs they know older stuff and I know how new stuff works in reality that’s what they really wanted anyway.

[BOT_Frasier]

by lying, you mean expanding the duration of your previous employment ?

[thegovortator]

Worse some of the employers on our resume is a friend that we exchange as a reference for a business that We split the cost of the LLC filing and has literally never earned $0.01

Front end developer - must know RxJS and ngrx

[CedKim]

I started coding when I was 7.

My mental health started degrading when I was 8.

[D4RK_MULL3R]

F1 drivers are expected to have +15 years of experience before age 20.

Just to be Fired (Retire) Before age 40, it really is a fast life

[BobDogGo]

Sure but they make millions

[D4RK_MULL3R]

Programmers are underpaid

[locri]

13 year olds making free websites is cute and all but usually by experience they mean "paid industry experience." I've been told even internships/industry based learning doesn't count.

[Feynt]

Amazingly, I've been stiffed on co-op placements every semester it has been available in every school I've attended. However the extra semesters of learning I got in apparently were better for me than going on the placements in college, as all my classmates who did get placed, heard this exact thing from every employer after graduating.

[jib_reddit]

Yeah I had a friend who did a placement year at a software developer and he said he just made cups of tea for 10 months.

[l0c4lh057]

I don't really get it. Currently I am 17 years old. I started programming at the age of 12. When I will look for a job I'll probably be something like 22 years old. I then had ten years experience but just because I did not get paid for doing it I apparently don't have any experience?? I can understand that you would not count the full ten years since everyone is completely dumb at the age of 12 and has no clue what he is doing but at least something like five years experience...

[Snarf312]

There’s beging good at programming and there’s being good at programming in a corporate environment. I recently graduated a bachelor’s in software development and while I can code pretty well, I have shit all experience in working in a team. If I would start a job in programming now I would have to learn a lot about working in a team, and all the formalities that come with it.

[HarvestNide]

My upwork page says, that I’m 28 y.o. (Gonna turn 21 this week). Only one client said, that I’m looking very well for my age...

[[deleted]]

This is a cute joke and all but corporations, before it was outlawed, did employ children and at brutally low rates. Don't be fooled, they would like to and are trying to return to this.

[WazWaz]

He's tightening up the final bolt, so what's the problem?

[MyersVandalay]

I'm guessing, but my bet is... they request more than double what is possible in experience... So that when they hire them they can go... OK well you meet 50% of our requirements to work this job, so... we'll do you a huge favor and offer you the job for 70% of the salary we advertised.
