I like how each year the list of requirements gets bigger and bigger. Not only do you need to be a software developer nowadays but you also need to be a designer, tester, QA, developer, db administrator etc etc. Not to say that code shouldn't be tested etc by the developer but the skills list in any development post encompasses enough skills to hire 4-5 people at least.

This is great for the younger guys that have nothing better to do but skill up but all the jobs I've had I can clearly see that the older guys who have family etc are slowly falling out of the dev environment as even if they have a passion to dev instead of going into management they can't keep up with the need to be able to do 5 jobs instead of one like they were initially hired for.

This is probably also why so many companies are struggling to find guys who have the right "skills" to match. The bar for what a certain level dev needs to be able to do is being pushed higher and higher each year and the amount of frameworks you need to know has shifted from about 3 to at least 8+ in any one spec. It's almost impossible for the junior devs to get enough time to learn everything that's required.

LOL - I have yet to come across somewhere that you don't get "an opportunity to work with a high caliber team". Waiting for the day when I walk through the door and the employer says, "well these guys are pretty **** but you'll just have to make do."

Yeah so what is it?

Please send 3 months pay slips so we can give you current+R2000
