I haven't done a study of this, but have some personal insights that make me think that what is happening isn't about choosing between experienced and entry level hires. I think there may be some perception that AI can replace the entry level hires, but only when used by experienced engineers who have the knowledge required to detect even the most subtle hallucinations and who have the CS fundamentals to do more than just code. At least, I find the skills of AI to be right in line with an entry level coder, which does impact my opinion on this. My prediction is that AI won't change much for fully trained, professional software and systems engineers. But it will replace coders who expected to get a career just by going to a bootcamp. I understand there may also be some current impacts on some people coming out of college with CS degrees, at least that is what I'm hearing, but I think that will end up being a hiccup...like the one we had with the dotcom bust...as organizations start to figure out how to fit AI into their engineering teams. From a longer term perspective, it will be a generation or more before we have computers that can compete with a human who understands CS fundamentals.

By the time you manage to get the 20 years experience everyone is asking you since your 20s, you are too experienced and old for someone to consider you a flesh talent anymore. But I have seen fresh talent in 65 year old people. Is not the age or experience but the personality, willingness and fresh way of thinking. Although investing in younger talented individuals is a must for any organisation one must not get obsessed with age numbers or looking only experience indicators, recruitment needs a multifaceted approach.

Great hiring tips, Dev! Having a team of experienced and entry-level candidates is key to ensuring stability and growth!

Those are two different jobs. In my opinion, the structure of IT is the problem. There should be entry level jobs with probationary wages, where the employee is evaluated for say 90 days. There should be a pyramid structure of management and mentorship, the higher up you are the less code you write. Almost every other industry is organized like this. The industry needs to evolve and break away from hiring "rockstar devs" for 6 figures and being at their mercy. I also think it is too late to fix the problem. AI is here it will only consolidate jobs to more experienced tech workers, forcing their wages even higher while the rest are forced to become janitors.

Excellent post. With myself being one of the many people who are trying to change careers and have years of customer service experience my desires are to be in the Computer IT/Cybersecurity industry and I have applied to over 300 jobs in the last 35 days to be told no every time. It is very difficult for me to stay motivated and focused on my goals when you hear no that many times in a row. More companies should be willing to at least try to give newcomers a chance. Talent comes in many different groups and ages. When we limit ourselves to older workers with years of experience we really do limit the potential for growth. Hire your talented workers replacements, train them to replace your current talent. When the time comes for these older employees to retire or they leave for another job you have talented people trained and ready to work for you with minimum downtime.

Dev Raj Saini When companies only consider experienced candidates for hiring, they miss out on fresh talent. Fresh graduates bring new ideas and energy, and excluding them means losing potential and enthusiasm. Hiring only experienced candidates can limit diversity in thought and background. Fresh talent offers up-to-date knowledge and a different perspective, leading to innovative solutions. A team that includes both seasoned professionals and newcomers is more dynamic. Giving opportunities to fresh talent helps build a sustainable pipeline of skilled employees. Investing in training and mentoring ensures long-term growth.

The last 3 developers I have been part of hiring has all been "fresh talent" with none or limited work experience, all have exceeded expectations and performed better then many, more experienced developers. It is possible, you just have to invest in them and feed their hunger to learn.

I agree!! It so difficult being a person waiting for my first chance in a career path I want todo 😞. I’m 24 years old, I have an Associates in Arts degree and I’m really wanting to start the path of being a Game Developer/Programmer but I don’t know much in coding, I am just starting, etc. I feel not good enough to get jobs in that or any related field because most of them only care about “experience” and I feel it’s unfair 😔
