The job description for this Junior Analyst role I’m looking at requires 5 years of M&A experience, fluency in Mandarin, and a black belt in Python. I’m not kidding. It’s an entry-level salary. Are firms are just putting out these impossible wish lists so they can tell the board they tried to hire before outsourcing the work? Has anyone actually landed one of these roles?

Well, it’s not like they asked for a Master's degree! Junior and entry-level are a joke right now. I’m seeing a lot of 3-5 years of experience, but the pay is definitely entry-level.
