Filling a technical role right now is a strange kind of hard. Post a job listing and within a week you’re sitting on two hundred applications, most of them from candidates who clearly ran their resume through a template generator and applied to fifty postings without reading a single job description closely. Somewhere in that […]

Hiring for IT roles has gotten strange over the past few years. Job postings pull in hundreds of applicants within days, half of them clearly unqualified, and the ones who actually fit the role often never make it past the first filter because they didn’t phrase something the way an algorithm expected.

Nobody just posts a job and waits anymore. Not if they want good people to show up.
