    Qualification inflation and no other suitable opportunities.

    Employers have blatantly ridiculous demands because they will find people who cater to these demands in a shit system and shit economy.

      I mean, just because they post an ad for a rocket surgeon doesn’t mean they find one. At least in the US, compsci professionals do not have any trouble finding work.

        I’ve been looking for 8 months… I’ve applied for over 100 positions and had one first round interview.

        There is definitely trouble in the CS job market right now. I spoke to a recruiter who had no new jobs on their desk in two months.
