Dane Maxwell gave the best advice/method I've found for hiring (and managing) devs: https://s3.amazonaws.com/Publicpdf/Hiring_An_A_Player_Develo...

I haven't used it myself, but I consider myself a "good" dev and get to be picky about what projects I work on. This is the kind of job opportunity I would respond to.

Notice Dane's entire approach is centered on what the "good" devs value and are interested in: their fears and desires.

Also Dane approaches specific "top" devs directly (vs blasting out job postings and wading through mediocre applications.)
