You Only Need 50% of Job “Requirements”
I've only once ticked of roughly 95% of job requirements. I didn't get the job. They actually cited the 1/20 requirements I didn't fulfill and said they can't hire anybody who doesn't have that.They wanted a 100% candidate. Looking through the list of the things they listed as must haves and that they wanted an internal candidate I showed them it is statistically very unlikely they would even find a better candidate for this position.The position had been open for almost a year. I think there's a reason. These are probably the same people that go to the press and whine about a shortage of engineers.EDIT:
Made a small mistake there. Anyway I only mentioned it after the interview was over. Not during.
