You can learn a lot in a year, but it does depend on the year. As someone said "They know Java, now they need to learn how to program", well that one year counts for a lot. Given the choice between two candidates one who has left university with 3 years of Java but no real world experience and one who has completed one years employment as a PHP programmer the candidate with real world experience actually has the upper hand. But then again as I have said we are a small shop and need people who can take on a problem and handle it by themselves. A large bank that is hiring a dozen programmers probably has completely different criteria. It is my experience that much of the technology that I have learnt over the years is, of itself, completely useless (and as a consequence does not appear on my CV). I have used languages and operating systems that are almost extinct so they are not marketable skills. The real skills (the ones that are not tied to a language or platform) accumulate very slowly. So the difference between no real world experience and one years experience is significant, but the difference between 1 year and 3 is less marked. 25 years experience is not 25 times greater than 1 year - I would only consider the last 5 to 7 years of your CV to be of interest. If however your CV showed that you had been doing the same thing for the last 15 years then it might start to count against you - I like to see someone learning new things (or at least new to them).
