Ok, first of all, most people who have been doing flash for 4+ years are artists or designers. Almost no serious programming was even possible in flash before AS2 so by defining 4 years you are essentially insisting that someone *not* be someone who "has a background in other languages and systems". I'm not saying they don't exist at all, but it is such a silly requirement because it inappropriately limits the pool. Of course insisting that someone be an expert in AS1 is even more silly. Is this because their job will be fixing someone else's 5 year old spaghetti code? Then the kicker is that this person must be in the Detroit area or willing to relocate.
I have a software developer background (mainly C/C++), was studying CS in university, and am doing Flash development for like six years now (that includes well structured OOP AS1 development). I know a bunch of people that are equally qualified. I honestly don't think they are *that* off with their requirements.
They could have put that Detroit (or US/Canada) requirement in the subject though.. ;)
