I thought software engineers with even a hint of talent were in short supply? Have I read the market totally incorrectly?

The problem is that those are not the only ones that apply.

The problem is that there is no reliable metric with which to measure talent. There is no interview process at the moment that currently does this accurately.

I'd say the problem is lacking accreditation. It's bonkers a person given a CS degree is not understood to know CS well enough to render whiteboarding unnecessary.
For a medical doctor it suffices to gets one doctorate. I don't think hospitals will drill him on the core fundamentals of his craft similar to whiteboarding in cs. A patient arrives with a slight fever and a headache. Quick! Which lab tests would you assign him!

It's ironic that for a doctor that actually would make sense since it's something practical that is needed on the job. E.g. "Patient has those symptoms, what could it be?"

How do other fields actually deal with that? Electrical Engineering should be close to our software field... Are they asked to draw common circuits or so?
