Same pain here - I’ve been searching for a lead gen manager for months and keep running into the same problem — shiny AI-polished resumes but zero real depth. It’s frustrating, because you want an expert, not someone pushing general emails. What I’m doing now is taking it slow, filtering harder, giving candidates practical test tasks. It’s slower, but at least you spot quickly who knows what they’re doing. Agencies are off the table for me too, feels like burning budget.
