Here's a few I've had * Needed 5 years experience of 4 year old framework, you only have 3.5 * Didn't mention vi. I was convinced this was excuse, phone call to recruiter seemed to indicate dense recruiter and he thought it as important as mentioning C++ or Java. Why it mattered was another thing. * You don't mention specific flavour and minor release of OS. * You don't mention degree. I'm past 40, why does this still matter? In fact you're the first to ask in 15 years... Not to mention all the false positives from interfacing with some other language or app. Memorable interview - Recruiter had completely falsified my CV and given me a ton of experience I simply didn't have along with taking away a good chunk I did have. 5 mins in and it was an obvious farce and I handed interviewer an accurate CV. We had a bit of a chat and agreed it wasn't something I'd want or they'd offer.
