Haven't you seen job offers where X years of experience in XYZ is a must?
It's like most of them. Never got one without this actually.
Gotta have this experience from somewhere.
I know devs like to say they would hire anyone, but they're not the ones hiring.
At best you get to interview people already prefiltered by HR which... looks for keywords in CV.
My personal anecdotal experience is considerably different. I've worked multiple places where I had to learn the stack on the job. Up to and including the language at least once.
I've never found it too difficult to get hired even when the requirements don't list something I've done already.
