@stux yeah I saw similar many years ago for like “10 years REACT experience” and at the time it was at most 5 years old.

@stux reminds me of some old trout recruiter who is probably long since dead, as this was over 40 years ago.She insisted her client needed "five years experience with the IBM PC." This was July, 1983. The PC had been released less than two years earlier.

@stuxSometimes the HR people who write these job postings are complete nitwits.@bmacDonald94

@stux also goes to the stupidity of hiring skill sets instead of people, since the tech is constantly changing

@stux "Yes, but we need an expert, and our guidelines say, an expert in this company needs at least four years of experience".<shrug>

@stux I remember Chris Lattner posting soon after the Swift announcement something along the lines of “I’m the one guy who can apply to that job requiring five years of Swift experience”

@stux How do these job ads not go through hiring manager review? Companies I've worked for have you approve the posting before it goes out.

@stux Whoever wrote that job posting probably scored very highly on the algorithms coding interview.Hiring in tech is so broken.

@stux That's bad but it's no joke about the recruiters. They're looking for these pink elephants that don't exist. They're looking for a team on a single engineer!

@stux I was invited by my company to attend a "masterclass" in generative AI.I dgaf who you are - you cannot be a "master" in something that's only been around for 2 years.Also the guy teaching this class was a "Blockchain evangelist" about 2 years ago. This was according not to his LinkedIn profile, which weirdly had been scrubbed, but to an old web page I found after some digging.

@stux I remember my oldest friend telling me of a job advertised the late 90s looking for 5 years experience in Java when it was only released 3 or 4 years earlier.Clueless job requirements have been around a looooong time!

@stux Geez, was the posting itself produced by a LLM or just by an ignorant idiot?

@stux Another good one is people who say they have 5 years experience with X or Y. When you drill down , it's 1 years experience repeated 5 times!
