Just out of curiosity, where do you work as a hiring manager that you get so many candidates to filter out? At the company I work at it&#x27;s been somewhat difficult to find suitable candidates to even interview with us -- the few that do come in for interviews are usually so-so (and we do pay quite above average). Also, anecdotally, during my own job search I was the one filtering out companies to apply to (nearly all the ones I applied to accepted me in the end), so at least that&#x27;s consistent with the developer shortage my company is currently facing.<p>I am very curious how the balance of power can be tipped so drastically in the other direction in some places.
