That was developer recruiting then.

Developer recruiting now: "$14/hr 3 month contract at Megacorp Inc., pErMaNeNt EmPlOyMeNt PoSsIBle (butwillneverhappen)! You must be willing to uproot your family and move to Bemidji, Minnesota before you will be considered. Candidates must have PhD or equivalent in computer science, Bachelors or greater in applied mathematics, and at least 10 years senior development experience in [buzzwordy web framework that has only existed for 16 months]. Apply with full résumé which we will not read, and as part of your standard interview screening process we'll try to trick you into writing functional code for the project we have in mind. Don't bother calling us, we'll call you."

You'll find our CEO bitching on Linkedin or Twitter that "no one wants to work anymore."

Is this just an American thing? I got a master's in CSE and got a job months before graduation. They're desperate for developers here.

It exists but it’s an exaggeration. Most companies are not like that. I also had a job lined up before graduating with my bachelor’s. I live in California.
