And learning (fun) should be an important aspect of the position. Whatever FP you're coming from, I don't think you can pick up Haskell on the job. Haskell seems to require you to disappear into a cave for a while, then again I haven't had the pleasure of working with experienced Haskell programmers.

I'm starting to see job adverts mentioning Haskell as a "nice to have", and even in some cases as a technology to work with.
However right now I'm looking at it from the other side. Suppose someone wants to hire a Haskell developer or three. How easy is this? I'd appreciate replies from people who have actually done this.
* How many applications did you get?
* How many of those applicants knew what a monad is, or how to write FizzBuzz in Haskell?
Thanks,
