Companies needing COBOL programmers find it easier to train up someone in COBOL, rather than finding a pre-existing COBOL programmer.
I learned COBOL in a month.
The only reason a company can't get COBOL programmers is because programmers want to work in Python or Java or anything that looks good on a resume for the next job. COBOL is pretty much a dead end, a hiring person is going to look at your last job and see COBOL and say no thanks. Not all companies, but why take the risk?
