New Zealand, with our borders closed my company has had multiple job ads open for intermediate/senior developers for over a year.

Every candidate we do interview, generally also has multiple other job offers.

The immigrant supply is cutoff and there is upward pressure on wages but employers are not panicking yet. Just grumbling that usual pay is not attracting good enough candidates.

Plenty of places have not increased wages yet and interview process seems around the same.

+1. I’ve been hearing grumbling for a while now but as far as i can tell the offer increase has been largely symbolic. Most companies are either in denial still or planning on waiting it out
