> "it sounds like some companies have strict bands related to YOE" I don't see how this could be legal, even in an employer-friendly a nation as the U.S. Sure, there are some outlier candidates who enter the field later in life as a second career. But for the overwhelming majority of candidates, "years of experience" is a very thin proxy for "age". I can understand requiring a minimum YOE, but there's no reasonable justification for a maximum.
