I think the server technology experience part of the requirements are usually cut and paste. But if you have a large system already built in Java and they want to integrate some Flex UI stuff into the mix, they probably want someone who at least understands how the backend works. If the company gets 2 applicants, one with just flex and one with flex and java experience, which do you think they'll pick?
