Job Descriptions

Tuesday January 17, 2006 - 8:04PM EDT

I'm sick of reading these fucking job postings showing that whoever posted it has no idea what they are looking for. It is clear that whoever makes a choice on who gets hired is going to fuck it up. They make technological lists that needlessly repeat themselves or mix technologies that can't ever be mixed. Most of them also have such filler for job description that the job could really be anything from secretarial work to designing nuclear bombs. Ha not really that was an exagerration.  Their experience requirements sometimes are freaking senseless. Because almost no one would stick with some things they want experience the time they want unless they are completely incompetent and couldn't find anything else to do. Then they list skills, which really should be put under the heading of "you should know how to do this if you are aren't mentally disabled or an alcoholic".  I particularly love the job postings that have requirements that would make Stallman squirm then end the posting with we offer "competitive pay."
