Guys, I'm not posting to get advice on finding a job, I'm trying to stay relevant to the story posted.

  You suggested the article was 'manufactured' because your resume on DICE isn't getting you job offers from high-end companies. We're telling you that you're doing it wrong. It's relevant.

    No: if a company was really invested in looking for top talent, one would expect to see prominent job postings on its website as well as Dice/Monster/etc. We shouldn't have to inveigle ourselves into a job in a convoluted networking game. Post the jobs on popular boards, with relevant informed requirements, proportionate pay, and a proper hiring process. So answer the top poster's question: where are the job ads? Where's the outreach from these needy companies? Apparently, nothing. Either the companies concerned are still in some recruitment stone age, or the whole article is a sham.

      No very few people uses those sites anymore, the jobs are not there. That is the point the other posters are making, the world has moved on, Linked-In and other sites have become the hotbed of activity for recruiting. Headhunters are just scouring the cracks of the internet (Dice, Monster) to find resources that have not been put in front of these organizations, in hopes that they get a hit. They are playing a numbers game. Tech unemployment is officially at 2.7% and I think most on this site would agree, it feels like it's somewhere around that number.
