I have an associate of applied science degree in software development from my community college, am enrolled for my bachelor's at my state university and I can't even get an interview for the life of me in 2024. Let alone some of my peers have CS degrees from my state university which is UNiversity Of Las Vegas, and the market just isn't hiring fresh devs. If this was 5 years ago Id have a job fresh grad with a 2 year degree. chat gpt is probably why every one is getting laid off because of productivity boosts from less employees.
The fear of AI in my opinion is over blown. We are knowledge workers who are literally paid to shift & adapt to the current state of the industry. Every 6 or so months things change in big ways in this industry. You should be focused on learning & adapting not fearing AI. If AI changes the way we work (which won’t be immediate) our job is to update our skillsets & adapt. That is why we often consider ourselves, “Life Long Learners”. Adapt to the changing landscape and you will always remain employable.
The current job market has everything to do with interest rates. AI is overhyped. Money isn't cheap anymore so businesses are more risk averse with hiring entry-level folks. Buckle down, get a non-tech job to survive if you need to and do everything you can to stand out. Teach yourself full-stack, do volunteer/freelance work to get experience, go to networking events, embellish your resume and apply to as many jobs as you can (quality applications including reaching out to a hiring manager where possible, there are simply too many qualified applicants nowadays to count on randomly shooting out resumes) When interest rates drop hiring will ramp up again. The federal reserve is expected to start making cuts in just a few months as inflation has tamed. You'll want to be ready to compete for those jobs. Don't give up!
I personally think Udemy provides the best way of learning, because of the roadmap, behind the scenes, exercise and project 😅. It depends on how we choose to learn them

Automation to the moon
Thank you for this my journey into tech is finally happening
Can we use this cheat sheet during the JavaScript interview?
I love when we are all thinking of the same thing. I just made a video on the same topic last week! I love your insight, and thoughts on this topic.
Informative as always!

Hello Chris. How's it going? This is an amazing video for me... I have been struggling with code for years, Literally. Would you mind helping me out?
I’ve used AI but only if I made a few mistakes and can’t figure out why my code isn’t working!😅🤷
