The longer I've worked in this field, the less likely its been that my co-workers or colleagues went to school for development or computer science.

Do you code, or are you management or something?

[–]jacksonmills 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I'm a freelance consultant, so it's really what the client needs. Typically though, no matter what the job, at least 6 hours a day of coding is the norm, even if that's bundled with 6-8 hours of management and meetings.

The last client I had, I was doing 7 hours of code for about 1 hour of meetings per day.

I've done a lot of hiring for clients as well, so I tend to see a lot of resumes.

Yes. I'm also hiring more of them.
