[quote=Anonymous][quote] People don't know that your requirements are actually real. For a lot of jobs, they aren't. [/quote] This. I'm not going to defend lying on resumes, but, if these requirements are actually firm, then the company needs to state that in the job listing ("candidates who do not meet every stated requirement will not be considered"). Lots of companies have college degrees listed as "required" for secretary/receptionist jobs and others that don't actually require them. I've also seen things like "10 years' experience with X product/technology" when X hasn't existed for 10 years. OP may be an exception, but many people who write job descriptions know little or nothing about what is required to actually do the job. That is why people don't trust that the requirements are actually requirements. It would be much better for both sides if prospective employers listed requirements as "must have experience with X or more of the following."[/quote]
