It feels increasingly like there are too many programmers for too few programming jobs.

Here in Denmark many companies are so picky that they only hire people with a MSc in CS/CE. Many of them have also outsourced HR to recruiting companies which is an absolute disaster for people who are self-taught or only have a BSc.
