You can’t vibe code a production capable C compiler if you’ve never written one.

Sure, companies are asking for LLM experience. But whether they know it or not they are also hiring someone who knows what they’re doing with the output.

Projects like this are still worth doing by hand. I’d dare say it’s even enjoyable.

I don't disagree with you. I just don't think it's particularly charitable for a presumably seasoned developer to not only go out of their way to accuse some junior of using LLMs but then declare that this obviously makes them unemployable.
