Associate’s degree is not so much to ask for in a job like this. It cost a lot of money to do on the job training. The three years experience is the hard part, most people who already have the education and experience are likely to be happy where they are and feel safe staying put.

On the other hand, they may have realized their initial requirements didn't spell out the job needs properly. Quite often people advertise they have a position available but do not spell out what is expected. Many people waste their time and money trying to get a job for which they are not qualified. If they more properly spell out expectations, people who've been burned before applying for jobs may realize they actually have a shot at this one. And for those saying they don't have an opportunity to apply because it is only open when they are at work, you might consider asking a friend to turn in a job application for you or you might consider asking your current employer for time off to apply for a different job. If he's any good, he'll work with you; if he isn't, you don't really like working for him anyway. David knowing some employers give raises to keep good workers and time off to get rid of bad ones Admittedly it looks silly to make it harder to qualify for the job after nobody tried to be hired the first go-around.
