I know, it's akin to other programming degrees. Granted that I start this one (two years, practical with placements once a year) then I feel fairly confident in that I will do the majority of my learning outside of school.
But again -- is the job market as "dead"? All devs I know (that don't do embedded) have warned of the shitty job market rn. I was imagining that embedded wouldn't be as crowded, which is why I applied. Now I got accepted and would like to know if the hiring of junior embedded devs is not as rare as other devs.
