You might want to say what country and region you’re in. Are you trying to hire devs in Silicon Valley? Madrid? Flensburg? Etc. The way to go about it and your expectations might vary a lot depending on the locale. Devs in SV can demand very high salaries and can afford to be very picky. Not so for every other region in the world. So how experienced devs you can hire for a certain salary will very much depend on where the company is located. And the advice that holds true for Silicon Valley might not be the same for other places.
