The most frustrating thing about this whole junior position drought is how it simultaneously affects those who are passionate and get it, not only the opportunist bootcamp alumni who were lured by the prospect of high earnings.

If I were to graduate today, I'd be royally screwed.

I feel that too. I am a self-taught dev. Got a degree, but not in CS. I don't know if I could get hired today.

Not sure how to fix it; feels like the entire industry is eating the seed corn.
