You know, this lingo about "Extraordinary", "Remarkable", "Astonishing", "Phenomenal", etc developers is incredibly off-putting.

I mean really, now - who would want to work with someone who described (or even overtly thought of) themselves that way?

FWIW, not an issue at all to me. I'd not mind working with someone who applied to positions described like that because I believe they'll be smart and mature enough to apply there without taking the titles so seriously and instead focus on the contents and requirements to do the job.

These guys are always hiring for the same position. Either they're too picky or people end up leaving once they join.

Or.. we just have a lot of projects :)
