Yeah, I believe you laddy..A friend of a friend of a friend has managed to get a job as a developer with no prior experience. This shows that it is indeed possible to succeed in this field without having any previous experience. The experiment was successful.
Yes, it's possible, but an actual researcher focuses on what the likelihood is compared to other factors. It's not supposed to conclude it's possible, therefore proving the circular argument. A proper research study is more well-rounded and nuanced. Plus always will discuss limitations that the researcher missed. No real good scientist or researcher will make a bold claim that it flat out proves something. They will always say an increased or decreased likelihood of something happening and what kind of correlation it has in the data. They also never forget to say that correlation doesn't equal causation.
A little reality check from someone working in the industry. At the company I am working for, which has just 100 people and is not very well-known: - We went from having difficulty getting applications for our vacancies to receiving applications even from Japan. - We went from receiving applications for senior positions with only 3/4 years of experience to more than 10 years of experience. - We went from being left with the only candidate who passed all the interview stages to having difficulty deciding which one is the best
When it comes to where I live in (eastern Europe) there are literally 6 ads in the entire country for software devs with no experience... HOWEVER there are 24000 listings for people with 2+ years of experience. The reason is quite obvious - to filter out those garbage candidates that have made a simple html and css landing page and think they deserve to get a full paying job. In reality even if you have no experience, if you apply to those 2+ years of experience "required" jobs with a great portfolio demonstrating that you can actually make good websites and webapps you're going to get a chance at at least some of those places.
So I've actually talked to many U.S. recruiters, and they all said that with requirements of 3-5yrs for a job that is labeled entry level it's to trick mid-level or senior employees and pay them entry-level pay out of their own desperation during a difficult job market. They don't like this practice, but they do it cause they have to listen to what they're told. We also have seen a decrease in companies wanting to train new people compared to all the way back in the boomer generation, where the requirements were less for entry and employers actually were willing to train an employee and retain them. Hence, why pensions used to exist in most companies. The hiring process has changed dramatically and will continue to change. Those who don't adapt and stay competitive will no doubt have difficulty with the cyclical nature of the tech field.

I'm inspired by his story and decision to choose and focus on one pathway ❤
Realistically, there are few people in the job hunt that know their cake.

For Science there is no moral ambiguity.
Tech job doesn't equal coding job. Tech field is huge. Change the title to dev job market.
Thumbs up if you knew who Samuel Oak was
