Steve,
This
ad is how you can tell if it was placed by a recruiting parasite, oops I mean
recruiting agency. They have no idea what these technologies are
and are parroting something they read elsewhere. I am surprised they do not
have fortran, dos and abacus experience would be an asset.
Basically if you were a company looking for a Cold Fusion developer who
would you hire? The person that says on their resume, I am a cold fusion
developer with these RELATED skills and that's all I do and do well. Or the
developer that lists everything because they had the tools installed on their
computer for 2 years, therefore having 2 years experience with all of them. I
actually saw an ad published looking for an ASP.NET developer with 2 years
experience. Hmmm, how long has it been out now?
I
just don't get some of these requirements. I know some pretty hot developers
that you could classify as geniuses and they would not know all of these
things.
The
moral of the story, stay away from recruiting agencies as you will never come
up to their standards. Ben Forta would probably get knocked back from this job
with the reason you do not have enough experience in all the required skills.
Damn, I knew I shouldn't have replied to this, now I have gotten
started!!!!! I'm not bitter, really I'm not :)

Hey guys
Just curious about something. Just saw an add
for a web developer position and this is what they
required.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
�
Experiences in all of the following technologies are ideally
required:
HTML, DHTML, CCS, ASP or ASP.Net, Cold Fusion (4.5 or later),
ADO (2.1 or later), Transact SQL, VB
or VB.Net, VBA and Win32 API.
� Experience in Java, VC++ or C#, VJ++ of J# is
highly desirable.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone on this list know all of this stuff?
I
would expect that people would have knowledge of about half of whats
listed.
