      I was frequently told I wasn't "senior" enough or "technical" enough, which I interpreted to mean "you don't know enough JS."

        It's particularly frustrating because the reverse isn't true. I've met and worked with plenty of senior devs who are terrible at CSS.

          And they readily admit this. But no one suggests that improve this skill. No one suggests they aren't "senior enough" because of it.

            Yet I'm constantly told in interviews and performance reviews I need to improve my JS proficiency.
