So one of the arguments in that article is, there is no labor shortage because companies get inundated with lots and lots of resumes, but they hire only a very small percentage of those resumes ...

But as anyone who has had to go through those resumes know, the vast majority of the resumes are from people who are totally unqualified for the job .. the fact that employers go through the entire resume pool and are unable to find qualified employees proves the shortage.

And that's just basic qualifications, we aren't even talking about actually knowing how to write good code yet.

p.s. if anyone is looking for a job and is a good java coder with some experience in webapps and GWT, send me a message.
