[DUG] How hard is it to get Delphi developers?

That's probably a bit difficult to quantify, it depends on the role I
think.

In the past, we have generally just specified that we're looking for
experienced/senior, object-oriented Delphi developers, I suppose in the
hope that this leaves plenty of scope for us to receive a range of
CVs/applications that we can then review.

I would also assume that a lot of companies would be looking for
experience in other technical areas that complement the industries in
which the company operates; e.g. for software dev at Trimble, an
awareness of GPS, construction, agriculture, GIS or similar would look
good on an application, even though they aren't directly related to
software development.

That's also partly why we don't have a rigid specification for the type
of role we might be filling.

HTH,

C.

Maybe, but it's hard to have a discussion with a potential employee
about remuneration if you don't have enough good applicants in the first
place. ;-)

It probably is more a question of how much do you want to pay.
