Title's been outdated for a while now. It's 5+ years
I remember my wife looking for a web dev position in early 2015 and at one place they were adamant that 5 years of HTML5 in experience was mandatory.
Wikipedia says:
On 28 October 2014, HTML5 was released as a W3C Recommendation,[32] bringing the specification process to completion.
Edit: I know the spec was a work in progress since 2008 but it's still kind of a ridiculous requirement. To put it in to perspective, my wife's class was the first year that they trained on Html5 instead of 4.
Wikipedia also says:
5 years of HTML5 in 2015 was possible. It wasn't final, but the browsers started implementing it.
sounds like the listing was designed to discourage people from applying, companies do this all the time.
She could just have held 5 relevant part time jobs at the same time for a year. Boom, 5 years experience in a years time. Resume math
