I'm in silicon valley, so, yes.
But one doesn't have to be here to get hired here. The recent grad I mentioned wasn't anywhere near California when hired. It does need a willingness to move (although moves are on hold for now, of course).
Agreed, but maybe I missed your intent. My point is not whether it’s possible, but rather if it makes sense as a generalized statement. Given how much SV wages diverge from the national average, I don’t think the latter claim can be applied.
When I see these comments I wonder how much it’s skewed by the SV peer group on HN
