    Companies keep saying they can't find the right person, do they know what they are looking for in the first place?

    That is a really good point. The shotgun approach makes me want to employ the counter strategy of applying even if I only match 40% of the requirements... but that breaks one of those "golden" rules of job hunting: don't waste HR's time if you don't meet the requirements. I think the desire to have people who are good, and good at truly everything under the sun at once, is unreasonable and doesn't really benefit anyone in the long run.
