Ask HN: Senior devs applying for junior position?

Hi,

I recently placed an ad looking for a junior developer for a project paying a very junior rate and yet have received a high percentage of senior developer resumes.

As a senior developer, I am curious about why that is. I am also wondering whether I should move forward with those candidates who are, according to their resumes, capable of commanding a rate several multiples of the one I am offering.

Your thoughts?
