### Segment 1 (00:00 - 02:00) []

Whether you're just starting to code or already have a bit of experience, one question keeps coming up. What programming languages should you learn in 2026? You've probably seen headlines saying AI is taking over, junior developers are being replaced, and companies only want seniors now. Let's break down what's actually happening with real job market data, clear direction, and a list of languages that can help you land a job faster. In this video, we're diving into the top programming languages to learn in 2026, especially if you're a junior developer or someone trying to level up. We'll look at what the job market is asking for, how AI is changing the game, and what languages are opening doors. Now, one quick thing before we jump in. Learning a single programming language by itself won't magically get you a job. Most roles expect you to know more than one language, be familiar with a few frameworks and tools, show problem-solving skills, and actually build things. But, all of that still starts with the same question. What programming languages should you learn first? And that's exactly what we're going to answer today. Let's start with the elephant in the room. Are junior developer jobs gone? The short answer is no, but the bar has definitely gone up. The last few years were rough. Between mass layoffs in 2022 and 2023, economic uncertainty, and companies freezing hiring, junior developers were hit the hardest. A lot of people looked at the market and thought, "That's it. Entry-level is dead. " But, that's not what the data shows anymore. By the second half of 2025, we started seeing real signs of a rebound. According to a report by Lightcast, job listings for developers with 0 to 3 years of experience have gone up by 47% since October 2023. That's a big shift. In the US alone, there are currently around 24,000 open entry-level software engineering positions listed on indeed. com. And that number doesn't even include internships or startups hiring outside the big job boards. Globally, the picture is even more interesting. Europe, for example, is facing a serious tech talent shortage. About 57% of companies report that they cannot find enough qualified developers, and the EU needs nearly 10 million more tech workers by 2030. So, yes, companies are hiring, but here's the catch. They're not hiring juniors the way they used to. Most roles today expect you to be productive much faster. Companies assume developers are using AI tools, which means they're not looking for people who can just copy and paste code without understanding what they're building. They want developers who understand code, can fix problems, and can make good decisions, even with AI in the loop. That's why fundamentals matter more than ever.
