So to retrieve information from a database and to make sure systems up you need a Master’s degree wi. That’s crazy. I wonder what’s the salary for that master’s degree
Why would you not require someone with a Master for Finance and Investments and computer knowledge which would entail a myriad of other things to be done? AREN’T YOU CRAZY AND LOCO? We are all advancing and you need to.
Look at the job description, what they are asking for is way way way below the level of someone with a Master’s degree. Either they cannot write a proper job description or they just throwing the word around. That’s an elementary job that someone with that just left college can do while they work and save up to do a masters. I shouldn’t be responding to you, if you had any idea about jobs in this sector you wouldn’t have responded like that. You probably the person who wrote the job description.
If only our government ministers were required to have such high standards. The reality is quite the opposite and it shows everywhere!
