Our hiring process doesn't take 6 months -- we're only able to find a candidate, interview them, negotiate, and have them accept an offer every 6 months. Our biggest problem is just finding people to apply. In the last ~8 years I count only about 100 total applicants to our jobs (I'm not counting internship job listings where we got a lot of student applicants). We tried posting jobs on HN Who's Hiring for about 6 months and got zero serious candidates, so we stopped.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 7y agoOut of curiosity, do you put a competitive salary range on your posts? I suspect that if you put a range that is above the median for your locale you might have more bites. Only other reason I can think is if your technology stack is outdated or you are located in an area where no one wants to live.
