Ask HN: Who are hiring junior engineers fresh out of college? Some of my friends fresh out of college told me that it has been hard for them to land on an ideal startup job. They do not have a lot of industry coding experiences, but all of them have a solid training from great university programs. I did not believe it until I tried to refer them to some startup companies. 'too junior', companies said. Some of them even prefer bootcamp graduates over university cs degrees, which I have no idea why. Why don't you hire junior engineers fresh out of college? What does it take for them to become startup-hire-able? If you are hiring junior engineers, why then? What do you see in them? Please also leave your email if you are hiring them. I might have some cool candidates for you. |
