Yep, and in the United States, there's no longer a large generation flooding into the workforce (Millennials); CS degrees have flatlined since 2016.



Is there a source for this? I'd love to also find out if there's some inverse with bootcamp grads, albeit that would be harder to track.

Bootcamps are more challenging to evaluate, as they have a history controversy around their graduation rates / job placement rates. Anecdotally, I just don't see a ton of bootcamp graduates on the market relative to CS degree holders. However, stats seem to indicate there were ~25K graduates in 2020. https://www.statista.com/statistics/626932/north-america-cod...

But this can be somewhat misleading, as it includes all trainings - including existing software developers reskilling.
