Left off "Good communications skills, team player and must be willing to work nights and weekends" (for salary of course, no overtime pay)

oh whew

Same with software - different acronyms same implausible skill set requirements. I can only assume most applicants don't have anywhere near the full set, are super human, or maybe I'm just a degenerate human 🤷

My field has similar insane requirements. :/ its rough out there. Let me know if I can help, will keep an eye out for roles that you might be interested in. :(

And funny enough they'll get at least 1,000 applicants that fit those requirements in this market

But but but... AI is gonna do it all... Right ? My contract rate for bailing them out is gonna make them cry. And they will pay it.

Also will need 10 years experience with some 3 yr old technology.

honestly this is senior neteng positions im seeing but the insanity still stands IMO

100k in SEATTLE? I hope you live alone (no spouse, no kids).

As opposed to: 1 documents everything, 2 asks good questions, 3 troubleshoots in an organised fashion.

Best of luck in your search.

It's the same for cyber security...

i can do ospf multi-area is that worth anything?? 🐰

I know guys who thought of themselves they fit those criteria and failed at basic Wireshark. I hate when HR just does BS Bingo in those ads

I'm reminded of mobile app dev job ads demanding "min. 5 years Swift programming experience" - posted just two years after Swift was announced.

Tech job "requirements" are farcical at this point. I remember a post from a guy who got turned down because he didn't have enough years of experience in the programing language *HE CREATED*. I've also seen an (unpaid) internship listing that "required" a CISSP.
