Is it me or is finding skilled Java and .NET programmers getting tougher? I am a partner in a small IT Consulting firm. We have been in
business for almost 15 years and it seems that finding skilled developers is tougher now than during anytime in our history.

The quantity and quality of candidates is of great concern. Even the outside recruiters we are using are disappointing. We are getting very
few resumes and they seem padded with experience that the candidates don’t really have.

Is it me or is there a problem out there?
