      There’s also ”we do machine learning”, which usually translates to ”someone trained an SVM model 10 years ago”.

          Not knowing yourself; it's a lot like dating in that there's big dreams and ideas but the reality of what is needed on the daily often doesn't mesh. I find it helps to talk to other employees and ask about their job and roles to get an envelope of what the company actually needs vs. what they say they need.

          Can't really so that with dating though!

          Finding a job is like dating except if you are too picky you starve to death.

            The promise of Jenkins and all the much more modern CI/CD tools when the job is ultimately just maintaining an aging Jenkins server.

              Qualification inflation and no other suitable opportunities.

              Employers have blatantly ridiculous demands because they will find people who cater to these demands in a shit system and shit economy.

                      I know why they do this. The last guy's core job was Ask Jeeves, but he was involved in and at least touched all those other technologies. HR looks at last guy's resume, figures those are the skills needed, posts a mess.

                                      I mean, just because they post an ad for a rocket surgeon doesn't mean they find one. At least in the US, compsci professionals do not have any trouble finding work.

                                        It's a useless fiction for hiring, but highly effective for getting money from the dumber investors.

                                          I'm guessing that was bait, lol.
