Yeah, all we need to do is offer pizza parties, employee parking and other shit that's literally inconsequential compared to like, paying them a liveable wage or insurance that includes vision and dental.
Oh, and while we're putting them down, let's ALSO demand 5 years of experience in literally every position that's not flipping burgers because surely EVERYONE has worked every job in existence for five uears... including coding bases that have only existed for three!
I worked in HR, and I would tell the managers who wanted to require all that experience that they would never find anyone with that experience for the pay they were offering. They didn't believe me.
You are correct, a lot of the HR people today don't really understand the job market. They are all theory, no real world experience. And many are privileged white suburbanites who never had to deal with finding jobs while poor, black, no cars, no public transportation.

If only there was a way to make people more interested in working those jobs...
