Lots of agencies looking to fill positions but looking to replace 2 or 3 people for the salary of one entry level person. That won't attract anyone with prices of everything going up.
I recently reviewed a position for a client I used to work with. They want to hire an IT manager of 12 schools, who can also do network stuff, helpdesk role, and web development for $60-80k. 
Some markets are flooded with candidates, others you will struggle to find someone. A lot of it has to do with education and the mess that has been created telling everyone they need to go to college and steering people away from trades. I have a friend that drives a dump truck locally for a town municipality. He makes more than some of the people in my dept with degrees. |
Sounds like a typical public school system FML.
