> the job market is getting super-specialized - once they'd ask for JavaScript programmers, now they ask exclusively for "Angular experience" or "React experience" or "$random_two_weeks_old_framework experience"; whether demanding such specific skillsets buy companies anything over asking for just a $language programmer is arguable Honestly, this just aggravates me so much. I'd like to learn some of these technologies! But, no, even though I'm a solid programmer and I have a history of picking up new things as they get thrown at me at a company I'm already working at, nobody wants me if I don't already have a lot of experience with that one specific library under my belt. Also, on a similar note, I've noticed this being done with IBM software for years. So many job descriptions I've had to pass on because they want specific experience with WebSphere and other software. I've seen this as early as 2010... |
