And, we'll have differences of experience. For instance, I suspect you're unaware of the extent internet-hiring has overwhelmed the tech field, and how successfully foreign human resource companies have choked out US citizens in "high-tech". Our resumes never see human eyes, a war of credentials dominated by agencies from other countries. Validation by alphabet soup. Letters sold at huge prices here.
In numbers India and China will win that war. Perhaps we can shine their shoes.
You cannot get a job at places by showing up with your portfolio anymore. You're shown the door, and told to log on to this or that website. Try to imagine what that means to an inner city person of color forced to work for minimum wage. And, to have the only visible effort to change that be a concentration on minimum wage! (not that that is wrong) And "free" college to play an unfair game in your own land.
Unplug the computers in hiring! But then that's just silly.
