This is unacceptable.
A friend recently posted a Senior Graphic Designer role, and I was astonished by the extensive requirements.
In my time, designers specialized, not tried to master everything. Companies should stop expecting all-in-one employees; greatness requires a collaborative team effort. Expecting one person to excel at everything is unrealistic and diminishes potential greatness.
Creative Directors and hiring managers, reconsider these expectations for a more realistic and effective approach.
……especially for a Sr Graphic Designer.

Brand Designer | Google UX Professional | does good work but doesn’t do “interview tests”, “spec work” or “task” . I believe they give a bad image to employees, employers and the industry

Thank you for this take, Rich.
In my opinion, this goes for all fields. For me it's been difficult to find postings where I'm the right applicant for the job because of certain requirements.
That being said, it doesn't hurt to apply and give what you already have instilled within you.
What do you have to lose? NOTHING.
If you believe you are qualified and meet most, if not all, of the requirements listed, why not give it a go?
I ask you all this: Don't stop applying. Don't stop posting. Don't stop networking.
Don't. Stop. Period.
I believe in you. Don't give up. You got this. We got this.
Thank you for reading my post.

We Provide Remote GRAPHIC DESIGNERS!!!
"Exciting news! 🚀 Elevate your brand aesthetics with our talented Remote Graphic Designers. From captivating visuals to compelling branding, our team is ready to bring creativity to your projects. Let's craft a visual identity that stands out together. 💡✨ #RemoteGraphicDesign#CreativeExcellence"
People that have worked under me all know my mantra. "What's your focus." You may be good at a lot of things, but what are you GREAT at? Then that's what we focus on. That's how we will position you to succeed and be showcased.
A lot of people use the "jack of all trades" as a positive thing, which in some ways it can be, but it also sets you up to take on FAR more work than your job description entails.
Keep in mind below. For a Sr. Graphic Designer... they want you to be able to do:
Graphic Design
Character Design
2D/3D Design
HTML Coding
Web Design
CRM systems
UI/UX knowledge
SEO experience
Platform design knowledge
and also be a team player. lol.
Rich Sherman is right on the money on his take of this. I've run into this personally as well. Yes, I CAN do motion graphics, graphic design, 3D work, etc... but is that what I applied for?
The more you know.

In today's job market, job descriptions are becoming increasingly exhaustive wish lists, but companies need to remain realistic in the recruitment process.
1) It's understandable that organizations seek top-tier talent, but the laundry list of qualifications and skills required for some roles can be overwhelming. This phenomenon is not exclusive to one field; it's a systemic issue that affects professionals across the board.
2) Are we inadvertently deterring exceptional candidates by setting unrealistic expectations? The emphasis on a lengthy list of prerequisites might exclude competent individuals who bring unique perspectives and skills to the table.
3) As we navigate the evolving job market, I encourage hiring teams to reassess their approach. Let's prioritize essential skills and qualifications, acknowledging that a candidate's potential often extends beyond a checklist. Striking a balance between expectations and reality will not only streamline the recruitment process but also foster diversity and innovation within our teams.
4) It's important to note that as job expectations increase, compensation often does not keep pace. It is time to recalibrate and ensure fair compensation for skills, which will foster a sustainable job market.

What an absolute joke.
Alternatively, this is a guide on overworking your staff with minimum pay without actually saying you want to overwork your staff with minimum pay.
