    Kind of reminds me of the early 2000s where some recruiter or HR rep would be adamant that you have 5+ years of C# experience even though it had only been out for 3 years (released in 2001). No use trying to explain that to them though.

      Tbf, if a job posting like that goes out, that is not a company you want to work for. It’s a lot more rare for that scenario. The more problematic situation is a bunch of companies simply wanting years of experience but for entry level jobs with entry level pay.

      My old boss would’ve said “That’s no excuse! You’ve just gotta put yourself out there!”
