I love this statement. I see this all too often where people won’t settle on a lesser experienced candidate. Shouldn’t the supervisor and architects feel obligated to provide career development opportunity. Developers want (and need) opportunities to learn!
Somehow, they’ve forgetten that what software developers do best is learn. Employers should be loooking for passionate, driven, flexible self-educators who have a proven ability to code in whatever language — and serving them up interesting projects they can engage with.
