In fact, 74% of recruiters say that they’re “barely able” or “unable” to find qualified tech candidates ( 2023 survey report ). Sourcing qualified candidates is the most crucial step of the recruitment process. There’s really not much point in optimizing your screening process or your onboarding process, if you can’t find candidates in the first place… right?

Mis-hiring is a common pain point that comes up regularly in these discussions. Bad hiring decisions are expensive. The cost of a mis-hire can be anywhere from 5 to 27 times an employee’s actual salary, and according to a three-year Leadership IQ study, 46% of new hires prove unsuccessful within 18 months! This means that a mis-hire for a tech position that pays $45,000 per year could cost your company anywhere from $225,000 to $1,215,000! That’s a lot of money – that you could be investing elsewhere.

In recruitment, “ghosting” is when a candidate, quite suddenly, disappears into thin air (like a ghost!). At some point in the recruitment process, they decide to end all communication for no apparent reason. They don’t call, they don’t email, they don’t text – they just evaporate. As the job market changes and the power balance shifts between candidates and recruiters, “ghost candidate” appearances are becoming more common. This is especially true in tech recruiting, where the tech talent shortage is giving developers the upper hand.

While expert programmers certainly use these sites, so do novice programmers who learn the basics, but who lack experience. Finding genuinely skilled and accomplished web developers in a sea of amateurs is challenging. How can you identify a seasoned web developer? Where can you find them? This guide will show you where to look and what to look out for on your hunt for an excellent web developer. Oh, by the way, we’ve put all of our articles and resources on how to find and hire developers here.

Even if you don’t need a customer-facing app, any business can benefit from internal apps. Indeed, a report from Fliplet found that businesses get an additional 240 hours of work from each employee who uses mobile enterprise apps. If you paid employees $30 per hour on average, your business would save $7,200 per year per employee from having internal apps.

In a world already trending towards software-driven work, recreation and products, the introduction of COVID-19 pushed the need for remote work and touch-free transactions even further, faster, than ever before, increasing the need for developers.

In tech, and across the work world. Indeed, the strong majority of recruiters (70%) say that their tech hiring process is completely remote-friendly ( State of Tech Hiring in 2023 ). However, remote hiring isn’t without its challenges—both for recruiters and candidates. Recruiters say that evaluating so-called “soft skills” or emotional intelligence is the most challenging aspect of remote hiring. It’s considered even more difficult in 2023 (47%) than in 2022 (37%). Developers agree, stating that conveying their personality and communication skills is the trickiest part of a remote hiring process.

Tech talents are elusive at best and a fable at worst. They have a lot of power, considering the shortage of skilled developers. Companies can no longer throw money around, hoping to land the best candidates. If you want to secure top tech talent, then you need to pay more attention to developers’ wants and needs. So, what makes developers happy and fulfilled? What do they look for in job offers? What would make them go for and stick with an employer?

These questions seem mostly to be grounded in fear – anxiety that candidates will use these technologies to deceive recruiters about their skills and lead to low-performing new hires within your organization. Due to this, many of the questions we get asked at CoderPad have to do with how to keep ChatGPT from messing up the recruiting process.
