I'm not in those groups but I also don't apply, because applying to jobs sucks ass, and I want to minimize the number of times I do it. So I make a judgment call every time - "How likely is it that this will be a waste of my time?" I screen them harder than they screen me. If I don't meet the stated requirements I don't waste time on it. I don't allow for the "real" requirements being different from what's stated, because I'm not going to waste time on guesswork, deciphering, or dealing with incompetence, lies or mere bullshit. Move on, move on. Responding to postings is a low-yield activity anyway. Jobs come from knowing people.
