In IT, it’s sometimes hilarious. You’ll see some people asking for 10+ years experience in a software that’s not even been out for 5 years.

All the years of experience is just arbitrary because HR people just put something down that sounds good rather than exploring the merits of each candidate.

10+ years of experience in the thing you created 5 years ago, even.
