It is not a guarentee when you are talking about a skill like computer programming. However, it is a guarentee that you will get older the more experience that you get.

I voted that it would be harder for people over 40 to get a job. If this is true than what am I doing wrong since I am only 22 and fairly skilled? I admit that I haven't been looking quite as hard as I probably should, but I need to find a job soon. (I live in Silicon Valley if anyone knows of an opening)

To a programmer the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

It's amazed me that a programmer as good as you finds it hard to get a job. That's why I feel pessimistic of my own chances of landing up a good job abroad

I have an idea. You put an advertisement in your sig trying to get me a job. With all the posting you do it is sure to reach someone in a Bay Area management position. Then once I get hired I'll try to talk them into sponsoring you.

Like, Nish I think its weird a coder as awesome as you isn't working.
My guess is after the dotCom crash your area got hit badly, and there are a lot of unemployed coders.
I really think the global economy is changing and hot employment spots like Silicon Valley will become a thing of the past.
Best of luck and don't use the 'f' block on yourself.

I think that there will still be hot employment spots, because you get a high concentration of talent in areas like that. And when the market is saturated like this, companies can sit and wait for months to find the perfect candidate. When in the past year or so these companies were happy to be able to find anyone.
