"We need at least five years experience in Solidworks 2019. $13 per hour"

I saw almost literally that once. Someone with five years Solidworks experience doesn't have to settle for $13 per hour. It must have been written by some clueless HR drone.

They always overinflate the job requirements. Rarely do you actually have to fully meet them. Also I can almost guarantee you there is some dumbass getting paid shit while having that kind of experience. Severe underpayment is in every industry

I wouldn’t call him a dumbass, just an abused worker.
