Insanity, right? Let me add another one - have you seen how they advertise job openings? With the "technical specifications." It's like they actively try to do a bad job.
We only worked with founders that are involved in the recruiting process. 2, maybe 3 "dates" and you should be able to decide with clarity.
Yeah. Job ads are problematic because they are mostly mix of trying to get bad candidates to self-select out, old-fashioned keyword packing search spam and utter BS compliance disclaimers. It leads to eight pages of garbage, and ironically piles of bad candidates to screen out. Since most recruiters spend 80% of their time screening, it's like a self-fulfilling prophecy.
We get so much more pop out of job ad spend when we limit the job ad to about 150 words and just say what the job is, and what really matters to you. "Software developer with proven track record of building web and mobile apps with React. You must have at least two years of professional development experience and be able to pass a Javascript coding test." Describe pay and benefits (about a 20% boost in applications for including pay). Done.
