These are the best bits of advice you can be given about job
advertisements. These sort of requirements are rarely rigid. Usually
they're posted to weed out those who are unsure of themselves before
they even apply. If you think you can do the job and would like it,
apply regardless of the requirements. That's what I've always done and
it's worked for me.
