There are people we have to convince aren’t “too old” to become a software engineer when they’re 28

Love seeing these stories. I’m curious, what type of jobs are most grads getting?

Software engineer. Some junior some mid level some senior. Some front end some back end some full stack.

35 is not old… this is a tech industry perspective we need to change.

You wouldn’t believe the number of people we have to convince aren’t “too old” when they’re 28

Curious if you have any students in their 40’s and what success they’ve had after school?
-
Yup, had a 45 year old hired last week
-
Getting a lot of pushback due to my "unusual and interesting" resume and my age. Seriously considering coming on board. Also considering a 2yr law school program. Not sure how much of a lifespan 50y old devs still have.

Curious: what city is the job in?

And this was that person’s first software engineering job? Related: do you think salaries on Glassdoor are low? You guys likely have unique insight on industry hiring

Let me plug my hero (
@mrmoneymustache) into this conversation: if they manage to save and invest 50% of their income (assuming no debt), they can retire after 17 years of work. No need for raises or 18 more years of work. Pure freedom.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

What’s the point of posting the conversation if you blur out the individual - “There are people we have to convince aren’t “too old” to become a software engineers when they’re 28 “ ... yet they’re smart enough to become software engineers... SO FAKE!!

"SO FAKE" That's rich coming from a QAnon person.

I am almost 40 myself and want to leave law to go into IT... I would hope some law firms want someone who has a Database degree but have had no luck so far.
