What that ad really means
"Competitive Salary" - We remain competitive by paying less than our competitors.
"Join Our Fast Paced Company" - We have no time to train you. "Casual Work Atmosphere" - We don't pay enough to expect that you will dress up. "Must be Deadline Oriented" - You will be six months behind schedule on your first day. "Some Overtime Required" - Some time each night, some time each weekend. "Duties will Vary" - Anyone in the office can boss you around. "Must have an Eye for Detail" - We have no quality control. "Seeking Candidates with a Wide Variety of Experience" - You will need to replace three people who just left. "Problem Solving Skills a Must" - You are walking into a company in perpetual chaos. Haven't heard a word from anyone out there. Your first task is to find out what is going on. "Requires Team Leadership Skills" - You will have the responsibilities of a manager without the pay or respect. "Good Communication Skills" - Management communicates poorly, so you have to figure out what they want and do it. |
omg, are you applying for a position where I work?

actually, it's perfect definitions for my current company which is flushing itself down the toilet :) (I'm doing all I can to find humor... :D
|
I always thought "Good communications skills" meant: every time we screw you, we'll thank you to keep your mouth closed about it.
|
ahahah this is good stuff!

There's the always popular:
"Fluency With Brand X Software Essential" - We bought the crappiest, cheapest program available because management believed everything the supplier said. We want you to figure out how to make it work like the best program available. |
