Most people believe that practitioners in the IT industry can only work until the age of 30, at most 35 years old, and can only be eliminated after the age of 35? In fact, the reason why many people have this idea is because of the influence of online corporate recruitment.
Now many job requirements published by HR on recruitment websites, age requirements are very unprofessional. At every turn, it means that the age cannot exceed 28 or 35, and the job responsibilities and work experience are very demanding. I think that he is a person with rich experience and outstanding ability, but also that he is a lively and energetic young man. In fact, looking at it this way is inconsistent.
You and I all know that young people have a short time in society and have not rich work experience. People with rich work experience and ability are not young. In the IT industry, more people in the industry also deeply feel that IT personnel can only work up to 35 Years old, because there is no company after 35. What a sad prejudice, how many capable talents who are around 30 years old are wasted?
But fortunately, people who really like IT will not choose to give up easily. They all know that if they want to stay in an industry for a long time, they must improve their abilities. Even if they are limited by age, they can rely on their strength to fight all the way.
The following summarizes some IT industry personnel's views on "only 35 years old".
Netizen 1: The biggest challenge in the IT industry is the rapid update of knowledge. As long as you have the ability to learn new knowledge, you will not be eliminated.
Netizen 2: Now, those skilled people around me are the older and the better.
Netizen 3: Do it for three to five years and then transfer to management or other. This should be the common saying now.
Netizen 4: Let’s accumulate experience. With more experience, you are a master in the field of IT. You are a master. You have recognized yourself, and others have recognized you. What are you worried about?
Netizen 5: As long as you are interested, do it for as long as you want.
In fact, many people think that IT programmers can only be 35 years old. It is just hearsay. The real old IT programmers and young IT programmers are about the same for learning some new technologies, and even surpass the young IT in some aspects. programmer.
Taking the picture as proof, the distribution map of IT programmers' abilities and age groups is as follows (the data map of the graduation thesis of the Department of Computer Science, North Carolina State University, the data is all 1694981 users, with an average age of 30.3 years):
Picture conclusion: The age at which IT programmers really rise in strength is between 25-40 years old, and IT programmers' technical ability can rise to 50 or 60 years old. Old IT programmers are not as capable of acquiring new technologies. Young programmers are poor.
New dream IT summary:
1. Unprofessional HR recruitment conditions have killed a lot of talents, but such unqualified recruitment requirements will become less and less in the future. Because companies that really need talent will not miss talent because of unwarranted prejudice.
2. Once again, programmers are not eating youth meals. Only programmers who don't like this industry and just want to get a dead salary, or programmers who rely on brute force and don't use brain power are those who eat youth meals.
3. In addition to improving personal abilities, you also need to make appropriate choices (post upgrade or transformation) at the appropriate age and at the appropriate time.
4. The engineering capability of foreign IT companies is not necessarily much stronger than that of domestic ones, but the architecture and design capabilities of foreign IT companies far exceed those of domestic companies. Those "old programmers" with superior architecture and design capabilities are still Fighting on the front line, the ability of these old programmers to exceed 10 ordinary novices is not a problem.
5. The new generation of domestic programmers is too boring. For most people, if you have not programmed to 30 years old, you still cannot become a "qualified" programmer. Therefore, it is not that programming is finished at the age of 30, but programming is just getting started at the age of 30.
