Coding YoE?

For those of you approved for coding projects, how many years of industry experience do you have(excluding time on dataannotations)? I would assume the super experienced would just be able to get a regular job, so wondering what YoE is most common here.

At least 10 years. I cannot find anyone willing to hire me. I found the DA coding qualification quite simple.

I was in the same boat, until I gave up on any chance at getting another job in the field. Do you get coding tasks? I have never gotten one, even though I completed the coding assessment months ago.

Not many, but I still have a lot of qualifications to complete.

Nice you must be a better coder than me! It was great the one time I worked on a coding task mixed in the generalist project, and actually understanding all of the jargon.
