Tongue in cheek; Masters required, Ph.D. preferred, 10 years experience in Rust, must be willing to relocate, 7 years experience with Windows 10 required, generous salary starting at $60,000/year. Not too long ago, I was helping a friend find a job and was a bit startled by some of the requirements. One that really stuck out was needing a few years of experience in a Java version that was still in the beta phase. (I think it was 8.) I don't know if it's an HR issue, a communications issue, or what... I'd speculate that it is intentional, so that they can claim they can't find local talent and justify hiring from abroad. Call it a hunch... I'm not sure why companies are so against training, but I suppose that's a topic for another thread.
