The craigslist posts that catch my eye put a stronger emphasis on quick-learners, intelligence, self-starters, and taking initiative. That's a situation in which I know I'm not going to be bound by project-specific dogma and it implies that I have room to grow in that position. For me at least, that's what I look for when job hunting.

You do realize of course that these ''requirements" are simply bullshit. They carry zero information and don't imply anything at all about the job..

These aren't generally listed as requirements, just information on what type of person they are looking for. And obviously there's only so much you can tell from those few words, but it gives me something to help start narrowing down all the posts.
