Coding isn’t easy. It also takes logic, math skills, ability to solve problems, and patience to debug, among a million other things depending on your company. If just anyone starts coding, we will get a lot of crappy, terrible, buggy software and firmware.
Generally, that’s why engineering is not an entry-level job that anyone can just pick up and start working. I work at an engineering company, and their interview process is not easy to pass.
Go ahead and try, but most beginners and ones without an engineering degree will not get hired.

Unless they are Indian H1Bs. The whole hiring process is rigged against Americans (Indians rarely have to do the degrading white board coding exam or the coding skills test). The normally use ringers for the times they do have to take these exams - whose answers are more often than not buried on Indian-only interview prep sites. The Indian candidate is being provided the questions before hand by the Indian recruiter. Found out when I was accidentally sent the test questions and answers - for another candidate and position.
Agree 100%
I did some coding in College for an IT course and it is hard, it takes a certain mindset to learn how to code in the various language, not everyone can do that and he who says different like this jackass has no clue what they are talking about. Also why would invest in that field only to get replaced by H1B labor?
