The image combines an internet greentext story with a fake job listing demanding decades of experience for an entry-level position. A young graduate is rejected for lacking experience, while an older applicant is rejected for being too old, mocking contradictory corporate hiring standards and the perceived superficiality of HR screening. It is shared as a cynical reaction to impossible job requirements and age discrimination.
