There is an 80/20 rule in this . also known as the Pareto principle. 80% of Businesses are only interested in the top 10-20% of most talented developers they just simply ignore the rest.

“Junior level position”
“…required 5+ years experience”
I think the problem is not that there aren’t enough devs entering the market, it’s companies having unrealistic expectations.

[NewLondonMarshall]

Hey Stefan, Just landed my first programming job and I wanted to say thank you so much for your video content! :)

[thatoneguy]

There won't be a shortage when companies decide to wake up and realize that you have to hire and train entry level employees at some point. You can't just keep recycling the same people that job hop from other companies. Software industry's gonna start looking like an Amish community if they keep it up.

[HEWfunkingKNEWit]

There isnt a shortage, there is tons of new talent. They just want top talent.

[headlights-go-up]

this talks about graduates, but I wonder how much self-taught/non-traditional devs impact this

[chazzsplash]

i’ve been trying to get a tech job for a year now. never faced so much rejection and failure in my life.

[likando]

Love all your content steff !!
It’s so helpful. I live in South Africa and honestly everything you talk about holds true here too. Keep it coming 💪🏾

P.s this is the second ever comment I have ever made on the YouTubes you’re the man.

[theosteknion]

Very encouraging as I inch my way into completing Uncle Stef's HTML 5 course. I am also going to purchase a brain supplement -- no spring chicken here 😁 but I am not giving up, that's how the 🐢 beat the 🐇 only that I am competing against myself & my shortcomings.

Silicon Valley engineer for 20 years retired. I stopped recommending people send their kids into 100k debt to get a CIS and work in tech in the US long ago. If your US based... The CIS job you are in school, getting into debt has already been outsourced. On the plus side its fun seeing companies get screwed by their outsourced employee's. Just a few of the US company outsourcing backfires. Stealing company code and starting a company across the street in a country that has no intellectual property rights. Stealing US companies source code and selling to China and other US enemies. Ever wonder why China's military jets look remarkably like US jets? US companies employing Ukrainian companies that are full of Russians (Russians live in Ukraine too) that are now hacking a major US networking equipment supplier and the US in general. Thanks to US companies providing the tools, training, passwords and sourcecode.. And finally the medical records of the VP suite employees made public on the web, because a poor woman subcontractor in India was not getting paid by her India subcontractor that subcontracted to a US insurance company. Yep your medical records are not safe in a country with no laws either.

The vast majority of currently open positions involve reporting to a 22 year old CTO whose only prior experience was interning at Facebook and are not real jobs.

[bruhmoment]

Thank you Stefan. I am going to quit my job as a psychic medium and become a front-end web developer.

Most companies don't even know what an "entry-level" position means, nor do they have hiring decision-making skills. They use software to select candidates and do 3-4 rounds of interviews and assessments to see if you're qualified for what they want. If you're lucky, it will take about 6 months to receive a rejection.

[RizaHariati]

A lot of startups in my country just laid of hundreds of programmers. This is a job that people laugh at right now.
It makes me sad. But I love coding, so I think I'm still going to push through. But I 'm no longer recommending it to anyone anymore

[valencian]

There is no shortage many developers can't find jobs, it's companies that hire one developer to do the job of a whole IT team which makes it seem there is a shortage

[taariqq]

4K video! Nice. I just built an Intel i3 10th gen computer with 32gb ram. I can play 4k videos now. It is amazing.

[TheGeoDaddy]

FYI - I went to Computer Learning Center (night school) back in the 80s (never went to college) and have been in IT ever since… College is a WASTE for this career path (other than HR triage) and the BEST programmers are coming outta India (don’t know WHAT they teach here but I’ve had to deal with Penn State to Harvard grads who couldn’t program their way outta a paper bag??? So - yes - companies are justified in bringing in H1Bs… it’s just illegal but not prosecuted (yet)

I learned COBOL, Assembler and (defunct RPG) but the most important skill I learned was DO IT YOURSELF! I’m only still viable because I never stopped learning how my own time and mostly on my own dime!

[karenwang]

I keep hearing about the developer shortage, but how do you even find these supposed jobs? I keep sending out applications and I get absolutely no response from anything. The only thing people contact me for is datacenter jobs, but I'm trying to get out of that industry lol.

[ConnoisseurOfExistence]

They need to start hiring juniors though. What looks like shortage is rather deceiving. I learned Python (and a bit of C and JavaScript) from online courses, solved lots of coding challenges (Hackerrank, Codewars, Leetcode), have projects on Github, have a portfolio website, have LinkedIn, and was looking for coding job for 1 full year, got many interviews, including 1 second stage interview (for internship), with small and medium companies, and didn't get any job. And I'm good at coding challenges. I'm 38 now, maybe they discriminate on age or something... I live in London, UK, so it seems that there are lots of jobs, but they aren't really for junior developers. I'm visiting now some free coding school (2 years programme) with a guaranteed job afterwards. I wouldn't do that, if I could find a job simply with online courses and personal projects.

[salamiswami]

When recruiters ask you about your experience writing code in some language they don’t want to hear about your personal projects or your time in university. The other programmers who you will interview with on the other hand find that VERY relevant. There’s just not an understanding that ANY coding experience is valuable. Whether you were paid for it or not.
