As an option - everyone has stated the easy problems of no salary listed and the take-home assessment - if you KNOW your salary is low, offer 4-day workweeks instead. I mean x4 7-8 hours, not 10-hour days. It might help hook some traffic. You also might have to open up the doors to 1099/C2C consultants, as well. Or talk to a staffing company and borrow some resources to get stuff done in the meantime. A good pipeline can hire a candidate in 3-4 hours. You have to run a technical interview, but I personally prefer verbal over paired-programming. I will refuse to do take-homes at this point and refer to my active github.
