Have you interviewed any of these candidates yet? I doubt that you have 500+ real candidates. My experience in the past 12 months of hiring is that you'll have maybe 10 "qualified on paper" candidates, and 490 AI-generated profiles.
That might be true if you're applying for a megacorp like AWS or something but hard to feel like that's a valid argument when you're applying to a company with 2 open roles.

Hard to be too mad at the applicants when a similar percentage of the roles might also be fake.

Small companies I've worked for are "always hiring". They leave job descriptions posted in case they get some miracle applicant.
you only got 10 qualified applicants to a generic software engineer position? i am having hard time beliving that sorry.
