PureTechHealth: Boston companies like 'em stupid

I recently came across this job posted on Indeed by some company called PureTechHealth.


Based on the skills/experience listed, it's evident they want an *experienced* designer here, someone who knows what the hell they're doing. Yet, take a look at that first bullet under "Desired Skills and Experience:"




One to three years. Wow. So, anyone perfectly qualified with a serious track record of experience in design (that's more than 3 years) get disqualified. Let's call this out for what it is here: Age discrimination. One year of experience = we want a 22-year-old kid for the job. Yeah, good luck with that, guys.

Finally, upon hitting the "Apply now" button and submitting my resume, I get a screen asking me the following question:



Gee, it was manually posted on Indeed, and it is through Indeed that I'm submitting my resume now, so...where the fuck do you think I heard about it? Seriously, are people in Boston really this stupid? (Yeah, rhetorical question.)
