This does tally up with what I've been hearing. Where I'm at there's been a few hires straight into senior. I've not heard of an official junior freeze. At the same time it's been a long time since I've seen a new one.

The problem, as I commented prior, is that if we no longer bring in junior devs to gain this kind of experience, we lose the flow of junior -> senior. But in most places, the people making the decisions won't consider anything beyond the end of the current fin year.
