I'm currently in an engineering leadership position hiring for a startup not impacted by this downturn. I see the numbers and do interviews, but not a Recruiter per se. > Have you noticed that more people are applying for the same roles? Seeing a slight increase in qualified candidates, not much of a change in unqualified candidates. By unqualified, I mean, as an example, a fresh bootcamp grad applying to a Staff level position. > Do you have less roles to recruit for than before? Have the same amount. Had a hiring plan, still have it, still working on finishing it up for the year. > How intense is the competition presently for roles? Not very. We're on a glide path to meet our hiring plan for the year without the pipeline being dry or being over-full. We're able to consider candidates individually without needing to hire anyone just to make the numbers, or reject people simply because we have too many applicants. If you're a good fit we make an offer.
