What I find paradoxical is that despite the fact there's a lot of people "on the market" (or so many say), I'm having a hard time finding software engineers to fill a few open positions.
Granted, I work for a small company doing things that may be considered boring and maybe people are looking elsewhere.
I would be curious to know if that feels like the case for other companies too.
- linotype 2y agoMaybe describe your company and tech stack here and leave an email address people could reach you? It seems like there are people looking in this thread.
- Newlaptop 2y agoIs comp below market? There are many people "on the market" who are either A) employed but looking for something better or B) not interested in taking a lower salary than their previous job. Salaries skyrocketed in 2021 (along with prices for houses, groceries, etc), and there are going to be a lot of potential candidates who are anchoring on those wages as their expectation for next role.
- icedchai 2y agoYep. I've had a few recruiters contact me about interesting roles. I tell them I'm a passive job seeker, so the comp needs to be somewhat enticing. Then they reveal they're paying 30% below my current salary...
