Who is doing the searching? That would be my first question...

Perhaps your HR department is not doing a good job. Or maybe they don't understand Perl developers. OR...

Your company might also have a bad reputation. I can think of one LA company that is well-known for using Perl and for being something of a sweatshop. Word of mouth travels fast in the Perl community. I know of many Perl developers who keep clear of this big company, despite their HR person's heavy involvement in the Perl community.

Also examine your product. Some people don't like working in advertising. I can think of 2 big LA companies (one located in Westlake Village and another in downtown LA) that use a lot of Perl but also focus on advertising. Some developers don't like working in the advertising/marketing industry. Your company's product might be something that developers want to stay away from or just find boring ....

Try to keep the focus on your people and the challenges you face. Good Perl programmers like working on good teams and facing challenges. I tend to avoid big companies who like to remind job seekers about how big they are.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
