Specifically in the US, for the past 5 years there has been an influx of code schools and boot camps grads entering the workforce.

I want to say that we have an oversupply of non-traditional tech workers that were from these schools that couldn’t or didn’t sustain a job.

Now when companies are trying to find qualified individuals, there’s a challenge weeding out these from actual skilled and experienced individuals.

Combat this with experienced non-US tech workers who are willing to work for lower wages, makes locals finding jobs a challenge.

For companies looking to hire US-only workers, too many people are applying drowning out actual qualified individuals.
