Re: What's the median age of the developers in your shop?

I would not think that graduates in IT would relate to programmers on the job since many programmers are coming into their professions without degrees.

Yes it does matter since the rate of graduates in IT in 2008 (the last data
I have available at the moment) is about even to 1999. Worse yet the
percentage of IT graduates vs. other BS graduates have not really changed
over the 13 years of data I'm looking at. Yet the demand for developers is
higher now than it was at the turn of the century. So I'm trying to draw
some conclusions that help our customers determine IT strategic directions.


This is but one small slice of data used to determine the suggested
directions.
