> I would rather just hire someone who already has the deep bench of JS experience at the same level. I love frank advertisements. Just put your real requirements up front and don't interview anybody who doesn't (claim to) fill them. Then it's fair to call bullsh*t. No complaints about the salaries you have to offer or the thin pool of applicants, though. It's all a tradeoff. I guess I'd like an evaluation as a hiring manager: does it work? Are you able to hire the people you want? If it's working none of this HN bellyaching matters.
