Transcripts
there has been a search in Tech layups
and a lot of these news are making us
think like oh software engineer or
coding in general is coming to an end
first let's look at the data based on
layoffs the FI we can clearly see so far
this year there has been almost 50k tech
people who were impacted by the layoffs
and of course not all the layoffs are
also captured on this website but
overall it is a pretty accurate data
point of course not all of them are
software Engineers but majority are in
this Tech area it kind of provide us a
very good indicator of how the tech
economy is doing so what does this mean
I also did another research because you
kind of have to look at both side of the
picture you can't just purely look at
the layouts and be like oh we are doomed
but what can we make sense of these data
some of the data point I find very
useful it's a level that fii so I took a
look at people who Rec recently posted
their salary and people who are posting
jobs so what did I learn from it based
on level the fii you can create your own
filter and I'm only focusing on the past
60 days so pretty much what has happened
this year so far some interesting
observation I have found is that we can
see there are 55,000 jobs that's looking
for some sort of software engineering R
so that's kind of relieving like oh yeah
sure there's a lot of layups but there's
also a lot of companies that are still
hiring aggressively not considering
people who already recently got a new
job offer of course many of these job
postings are also not really as accurate
as it could be like people may not close
it after they fill up the role or people
just open a job because they have to in
order for someone internally to transfer
to a new role so a lot of time it can
create this like you know sense of oh
there might be too many jobs I found the
data to become very interesting once I
start playing around with it for example
when I try to filter it by level I can
clearly see majority of the company out
of the 55,000 35,000 of them are looking
for senior level software engineers and
if you tarle anything other than entry
level and internship the number become
40,000 that means about 73% of all the
available job openings are looking for
senior and above this can be concerning
for a lot of people who are studying
software engineering right now or people
who are looking into getting a software
engineering job this clearly shows the
number of entry level jobs are really
shrinking because when I focus only on
entry level jobs there are only 7,000
jobs as we know computer science has
become a very popular major there's
probably more than 100,000 student
graduating every single year and at a
given time of course students are all
graduating around around the summer time
but at a given time there are only 7,000
available entable jobs that just shows
how the market is definitely getting
very very competitive for this Ang World
So based on this data what worked for me
in college getting me to that software
engineering job May no longer work
anymore what do I mean so in college I
focus a lot on my grades I focus a lot
on getting opportunities such as
teaching assistance which I believe can
help me land whatever job I need in the
future cuz you know companies care about
relevant experiences while relevant
experiences are still useful but what I
think is way more important nowadays is
to get that first internship and have it
transition translate into that full-time
row because nowadays most cases what
happen is people who have an internship
they go for that return offer they go
straight into the company after
graduation so the company will no longer
try to hire as many entry level now they
can just back fill the road via
internship programs and I do think this
will definitely be something we see way
more often moving forward especially at
these bigger tech companies a lot of
them they are not hiring very
aggressively right now and many of them
are still looking for internships and
why would they not want to you know if
they have an internship they already
trained you you already familiarize
yourself with the internal tools
what type of work environment it is like
it saves them a lot of money I can
totally see how a lot of company will
focus majority of their ENT Lev heart
via the internship funnel and another
observation I have made is if I go into
the salary category where people enter
and share their salary the website kind
of encourages you to post your own Data
before you can view anything and the
posting data sometimes you might not
also post the exact date but so it may
not be as accurate but the similar type
of observation can also be found of
course entry level is such a smaller
percentage versus Senior and above
because once you become a software
engineer pretty much you fall into the
category of senior and above after you
work two plus years so of course the
number of engine level by default is a
smaller piece of pipe but once again the
data here shows entry level jobs is a
smaller percentage of the overall higher
in the past year so this is definitely
concerning for people who are in school
so I do believe yeah we have a lot of
software engineer or a lot of people who
are capable of doing software
engineering related works but we still
are looking for people who are more
senior who are more experienced cuz
those are the ones that's harder or less
in line to be replaced but any of these
generative AI Technologies whereas ENT
level rows it would rather train you inh
housee meaning the get get you from
internship or whatsoever and spend the
money and time in training you and then
grow you into their own senior level
these are some sort of observation that
I have found so would I still recommend
people who are looking for a job via
Boot Camp or any alternatives rather
than going to school now seems to be a
lot trickier and harder you kind of have
to know some sort of connection or find
or somehow built to qualify for a more
senior level role or of course now if
you're looking for an ENT L world the
competition might be a lot more steep
but what we do know for a fact at least
for now is that the overall salary
trajectory hasn't take a huge hit at
these bigger tech companies or overall
Tech salaries aren't being reduced
significantly yet so this overall still
signals that hey software engineer are
still desirable but we only want people
who have EXP experiences which makes the
field harder to get into and I guess
overall it kind of benefits people like
myself who have been in this field but
it definitely hurts people who are
trying to get into the field it's not
going to be us easy to break into it's
kind of like now you have to apply to a
university and you have to have all
these checkbox before you can get into
the special programs good SAT score good
GPA etc etc where us where Translate to
do you have past internship do you have
number of years of work
experiences if so then yeah I guess
there's still a bunch of opportunities
available for you so I think the
recommendation here I will say is yeah
if you're thinking about breaking into
Tech you really have to re-evaluate like
is this risk worse what you are looking
for are you doing it because you think
it's a lucrative field because sure
right now it's still lucrative but
definitely a lot harder for people
people to get into just for that
lucrative pay so definitely reevaluate
but if you're in school now I would say
it's more important than ever to find
some sort of internship that will offer
return offer and translate that into
your primary ENT job and you can always
switch after that so yeah I hope this
