Job of the week - can anyone do this?



Just noticed this ad for a "Cisco IP Consultant" on Jobserve. Is there
anyone on the planet able to apply? This list of requirements is
utterly staggering. All that's missing is "5 years experience of
Longhorn" and "must be under 25". WTF goes through the heads of people
putting this sort of requirement together?
