Unless you are very bad developer, like those that don't pass the fizzbuzz test, i don't see why somebody would not have chance to get a job in software development.
I think Jeff Atwood has written about prospective employees not passing fizzbuzz. He also mentioned people who claimed to have 15 years experience in software development taking 15 minutes to make a solution.

use warnings;
use strict;
my $i=1;
for( ; $i<=100; ++$i) {
if(!($i%3)) {
print "fizz";
}
if(!($i%5)) {
print "buzz";
}
if($i%3 and $i%5) {
print "$i";
}
print "\n";
}
I started learning perl a couple of days ago.
