....Most job postings still seem to cling to the "3-5 years experience in
the field" requirement no matter how demanding the job may be.

Do you think that it's just boiler plate verbiage because they simply don't
know what to specify??

Hi Jeff,

 

I was mainly talking about RPT needing a time/experience requirement.

You're right.  I see that now.  Sorry bout that.  The hot air was in my head
this time.

You're right about the supply/demand though. You get the best you can get.
That being said even our elusive "CAUT Credential" should have some kind of
time requirement IMO. I can't see some green tech getting the credential
with only one year in the business. But today I'm just blowing hot air. Pay
me no mind.

I agree with that 100% as long as it would push salaries up.  If we're not
going to somehow push to drive the salaries up with this "credential", then
I think schools ought to get green techs for entry level money.  This
endorsement should work both ways, not just for the school's advantage.
