But also, you gotta people what you really want, starting with the job description. In my personal experience, 75% of unqualified applicants apply because they thought they were a fit when they never had a chance. Saying "seeking high energy team player who likes coding" is gonna attract everyone you didn't ever want to apply to do just that.
