Possibly in your area the candidates you get may have come across them, but then they wouldn't be junior engineers, by definition. If you're advertising for "strong algorithms" candidates then sure, but I bet half the people reading this have never used or come across any probabilistic data structure!
- ramchip 14y ago> then they wouldn't be junior engineers, by definition I don't think so. My impression is that junior/senior is defined by years of experience more than technical skills. Having been out of university for one year now, I know I sure as hell won't get a job as a "senior engineer" anywhere, even if I could easily implement both these structures.
