Web developer, heavier on the front-end side.
I think it’s difficult because companies know they can hire someone with 2 years of experience to do similar work.
In his experience a lot of the job postings are not real or have hundreds and hundreds of applicants and multiple rounds of interviews. I’m not quite sure how to help and I’m trying to be patient and go easy on him. It shouldn’t be this hard.
Thanks for this - I’ll try to forward it on in a gentle way.
