Why do companies need so many web accessibility engineers?

1/12/2023

 
Flood gates opened in 2019 when a blind man sued Dominos that he could not order pizza and won the case. 
https://lnkd.in/dRp6JfKD

From that day many people started suing companies for web accessibility issues left right center.

In response companies prioritized web accessibility stories.

What was the last consideration suddenly became priority overnight.

New positions were created , 
Ex: Accessibility Coach , Accessibility Tester and more

In fact a couple of our web dev bootcamp students were hired just to work on accessibility. 

Accessibility was introduced in the early software development lifecycle which was pretty much an after though . 

I punished our students to bring a presentation on web accessibility on follows topic, Will share with all best presentation with permission from student

Here are topics I asked them to cover 

• Understand Accessibility ( A11y) https://lnkd.in/dS7rHGKX
WCAG 2.1 Standard
• Semantic HTML and its role ?
• What do Screen Readers do and how do they work , some example ?
• What tags to use for accessibility ?
• What is Aria and why do we use them, Examples ? 
• Tools :: Axe ( Chrome Extension) , Accessible, JAWS

Student Bootcamp Diaries - Learnings and Updates

1/10/2023

 
Some observations from seeing 6 offers in the last 30 days with our students.
-------------------------------------------------------

Focus on tiktok..They are doubling up and hiring aggressively .

One of the students just got the offer with a very healthy salary and bonus.
I was shocked seeing compensation would be an understatement.
I will just say that even I have not made that kind of money in my entire life.

Find someone who works there and get referred .

Check levels.fyi for salary info..
-----------------------------------------
Couple of students are starting with the Federal government. There are many civilian agencies that are open to Non US Citizens / Non Permanent Residents
You will mostly be working with a civilian contractor but your end client will be the government.

Both students got full time remote positions.

Surprisingly both students are NOT based out of DC where most govt agencies are based out of.

-----------------------------------------------------
One of the other students ( Stem OPT ) who was affected by the layoff as a data analyst was able to secure another job with almost same pay within 3 weeks.

Again little surprising to me as it will typically take 4 to 5 weeks at minimum to secure a full time job going through all those rounds of interview etc etc .

------------

Couple of our working students told me that they are looking for GCP Bigquery.

Tons of companies are moving data warehouse from teradata etc to GCP BigQuery ( Would be worth putting time in learning that skill set )

--------------
One of the best students got 4 offers in 4 weeks . Person has 5 years prior experience but had a large career gap.
Switched companies in 2 weeks as the second company has much higher compensation .
Stopped responding to recrutiers and cancelled existing interviews . It was crazy

This shows that there is no shortage of jobs, only shortage of good talent.

-----------------------
Some Unrelated Fun Conversations with student
-------------------

Another student who graduated 2 years back told me that he is the best front end dev in the team and only works 45 min a day ( thanks to Wynisco Inc. bootcamp :) ).There is just no work .Looking to switch as he is bored and not challenged.

Did I tell you he makes 6 figures ?

I was like where were these jobs when I was working .I want that damn job :)

----------
SOME OOPS MOMENT
-----------
Talked to a student I helped with a resume for a few months .

She is like I want to join the bootcamp.
I am like ..Sure
But ......
I got the internship and internship hours and bootcamp hours are overlapping

I was like..Down goes my money :(

Me recovering and saying ..Internships don't pay that well .Why work for pennies ...Why don't you join bootcamp and make 6 figures faster ..

He is like ..I am making 5K..

Me :: Red faced :)

Till next time ..
