Sounds like programming! What happened to low code/no code? I AM old, retired in fact. IT has more "middleware" than the library of congress and mainframes still exist. But I will dig around, because I'm still curious. Carry on. LOL

This. Exactly so. I was old when I got my degree. I work in gov't now and wouldn't go looking for IT work again if my life depended on it.

My perception, I came to the game late, is it's SOOOO much cheaper to hire right out of school. Experience is expensive. I graduated in 2000 and there were 250,000 open entry-level positions promptly filled byu 250,000 H1B visas.
