The experience the posting asks you to arrive with, in the employer’s own words, not our reading of the job. A posting that states no experience requirement is in none of these, and neither is one asking for experience outside the five.

Postings that ask for that many years or fewer, plus postings that state no requirement. The kind of experience still matters.
