These people don't ask for much do they?
The next job ad says requirements:
- Experience with Java 1.8, JSP, Struts 2, Apache Tomcat, Ant, JDBC, SQL, HTML, Javascript, XML, CSS, XSLT, Git, VCS, Datbase application development in Oracle 11g or later
- Knowledge/experience of Oracle database, relational databases, and PL/SQL code
- Java middleware/Java EE
- HTML, Javascript, CSS
- Cybersecurity (STIG/OWASP/Security+/CSWF)
- BS in CS
- Secret security clearance
- US citizen

The next one asks for
- Experience in Eclipse IDE and Spring framework
- 4+ years developing web apps using JavaEE, XML, and web services
- 4+ years with J2EE components such as servlets, JSP, EJB, JDBC, Logging mechanism (ex Log4J), transaction management and thread management
- 4+ years writing SQL/Functions/Procedures in transactional database such as Oracle, SQL Server, DB2
- 4+ years knowledge on MVC framework like Spring/Struts/Grails and ORM tools such as Hibernate, MyBatis
- good understanding of developing web services
- good understanding of HTML, UI, CSS, and Javascript
...

I have a 4 year CIS degree and 20 years coding, the last 18 at the same small business on a limited platform, no need for half the stuff companies are asking for.  I feel like I'm very good at what I do yet underqualified for practically everything.
