Right now, seems that "we're hiring" is posted outside every business
doorway in Utah valley. The last place I worked started me above 60K / yr
and was willing to give me a 30% raise to keep me there, yet that was still
lacking compared to other offers I was getting... So... a shortage might
not be too far off base. (I might have misconstrued your point entirely,
Cole, and if that's the case - I apologize.)

That's our experience as well. We've been trying to hire a developer
since the beginning of the year with no luck. We used a headhunter
service for a while who told us "Unemployment in the tech sector in Utah
County is 0.2%". I don't know if that stat is accurate, but every one
of the candidates they supplied for interview already had jobs--most
weren't even looking for jobs--and we certainly haven't had a lot of
answers to our posts.
