Because I'm applying to startups. The barrier to entry for corporate jobs is very high - what I mean is that there's too much of us. In such situations, people will ask recruiters who happen to be their blood relatives or neighbors to recommend them. But I do not have that privilege. And the problem with startup is poor pay, with too much skill requirement. The poor pay is still understandable, but what's understandable is the high skill requirement.
Yea, that's the problem with startups, they're poor, so by their logic "we only have money for 1 person" - "so if we hire a full stack that does everything, that's cheapest." - "What is the cheapest dev? An intern / junior." - "So what if we get a junior full stack :bigbrain: "
And then they create a vacancy for a CEO that can build their entire start-up and label it a junior-full-stack
