...Ask yourself why they are requiring such stringent standards.

Once you do that, get back to us before calling them "Asshats". Better yet, ask a few companies why they don't have lower standards for employment, since (according to you), its obviously their problem for causing unemployment to be so high.

Because they have no idea what people are actually qualified to do. There's a job in Pittsburgh asking for a Mandarin-fluent secretary for something like 35k a year. ludicrous.

employers just come up with whatever, slap it up on a job board, then engage in the biggest circle-jerk in human history.

And if there's no one willing to work for that kind of pay, what do you think happens to that position?

What happens if no one is qualified for a job, period, and they get no applicants?
