The post explains that hiring has become exponentially harder due to a shift to an employer-led market, new roles in machine learning, and AI-generated resumes that erode trust on both sides. A recent Staff Data Scientist posting received over a thousand applications in 24 hours, many with identical formatting and links to nonexistent profiles. Traditional resumes no longer provide trusted information, and AI tools like ChatGPT produce generic answers that obscure genuine candidates, forcing recruiters to add more stages to hiring processes.

Developer Story aims to give recruiters objectively verifiable insight and help candidates stand out from the crowd, fixing a broken part of the hiring process.
