5 days ago, HN had a long thread on a WSJ article [1] that stated tech jobs for fresh CS grads had dried up. I'm hearing the same from my nephew at Berkeley who's a talented programmer yet is struggling to get internships even after aceing coding assessments online. I'm confused as funding for startups remains similar to 2 years ago [2] and I suspect even large tech companies know that future tech leads must be built by nurturing CS grads. What am I missing?
