BINGO. Junior developers with no prior experience are useless. I don't want to be paying you a full salary to learn what you should at an internship.
The world has changed. People need to accept this.

Pretty sure ever Entry Level Developer I've seen hired at the last few companies has been an internship conversion.
I'll admit I was a lazy college student, but I got the impression that the amount of people getting degrees far outstrips available internships in their industry. Even if you filter out people that can bullshit a 4 year degree program but can't cut it in the work force. Even location of colleges vs industry make getting a summer internship quite challenging/impossible.

It's an understandable preference, but it shouldn't be a requirement.

I actually took 5 years to graduate because I would take time off school to intern full time. Luckily for me it was actually a degree requirement to intern for a year. Though I interned at the same place for 3 years straight just going to part time when I was full time school.

Lend is so stupid rich he pays for premium junkie
Did you see the car i drive =( its sad,

I still participate in the implementation/coding of most projects even in a leadership position. At the "bigs"(your googles), the average salary is around 250k~ but the variance is between 150k-700k~ or so, meaning ignoring outliers, there's a sizable number of in-the-grass developers making 600-700k at these companies doing the same work, and outliers making 7 figures plus.

Wife does (and the majority of our Social Circle). I occasionally work from the Kendall office. Not that often =p
Well you know where I'll be haha, maybe one day we will meet. Maybe I'll pass you on the street and not even know.

I have too much respect for the sanctity of marriage. However I am sure the area is loaded with babes.
Noodle what if you have a hot coworker and you're in a meeting with her and she excuses herself to go the bathroom? Are you going to take her up on that offer?
