The entire hiring process is laughable. Few positions advertise correctly. Most claim they need diety level abilities for as little as they can get away with. Businesses post phantom advertisements to gauge the perceived market value of positions, keep talent pools of people in the wing to fill in what seem to be increasing turnover rates, and so on.
Most of all of this is an artifact of businesses trying to commoditize human labor, including professional/specialized skills, and these are the sort of responses and gaming you see in such an artificial environment. Intelligent people are going to fight back and game your system when you try to game them.
The side with leverage that dictates the rules of engagement is to blame here and that isn't the labor force at large since there is almost no organization from the labor force, it's the employers that create this mess yet they complain about it continuously.
