The biggest problem with these kinds of job description is that they artificially filter out candidates that don't know it's perfectly okay to not check 100% of the boxes before applying. I've never worked or interviewed anywhere that expected a candidate to meet the entire checklist. If you check some of them then you should apply. The worst that will happen is that no one calls you back. The best that might happen is that you get the job because you really clicked with the interviewers.
- mc4ndr3 4y agoTrue. I confess, as a candidate, the really expansive job postings also help me to screen out undesirable roles. Oh look, a company handcuffed to Microsoft .NET! Pass. A company that doesn't check in source code as text files. Pass. A company that still thinks Java Spring is a productive approach. Pass. A company who evidently had a bad experience with some dip who didn't know how to Microsoft Office. Pass. db2 (or Mongo). Pass. Thanks, job posting!
