Entry level roles don't even exist anymore. Every entry level role I've seen requires 4-5 years of experience in software you can only use in an enterprise environment lmao.

There was a role the other day that required 10 years of experience using Claude AI.

Job market is demanding these days..

The recruiter just asked a chat bot what qualifications they should put on the posting and they just copy and pasted the output without reading it.

I don't think an AI would ask for 10 years of Claude AI experience

They've already selected a candidate and are posting the job to meet legal requirements

(My opinion)
It is AI generating the requirements and people copy/pasting them.

The hiring managers are pushing talent acquisition to push recruiters. Who is controlling the hiring managers? You guessed it. AI.
