After a decade of creating technical education programs for Fortune 500 companies, bootcamps, and apprenticeships, I’m seeing a fundamental shift in what employers expect from all developers, not just juniors.

In this video, I break down:

– Why basic computer literacy is the universal starting point.
– The 5 core competencies every developer needs in 2025-2026

Whether you’re trying to break into tech, struggling with employment post-bootcamp, or wondering why you can’t land interviews, this video covers what’s actually happening in the developer job market and what you need to do about it.
