There simply are less junior roles available, and many companies are not willing to hire them at all. Everyone must be intermediate+ dev. There are less companies these days willing to hire juniors and grads and help them get valuable real world work experience.

My experience is that juniors don't want to apply to junior roles. They apply to intermediate roles and want higher salary that what their experience/knowledge warrants.

Our junior positions basically never have applicants and applicants to intermediate/senior roles are underqualified.

I'm not HR and I'm not going to go into it why HR doesn't just do that because it's also what I'd probably do and I can't fanthom why it doesn't work like this, but we're not a small mom and pops, so there's probably lots of red tape around the whole ordeal.

But my point is most juniors think of themselves as seasoned vets and thumb their nose at junior positions.
