Discussion on: Apply to all jobs, job postings are not realistic anyway.

What always puts me off is when companies, in a rush to show up in keyword searches, will say something like this: Must know a framework such as Angular, Vue, or React.

Some companies really do use them all, that's fine. I also recognize that some companies just want somebody with experience who is willing to learn. That's also fine. It would just be nice to include which stack you actually use.

What that does is allow both sides to avoid wasting time. Maybe I prefer to concentrate on a specific stack right now. Or, maybe I want to know what I should brush up on.

Interviews go both ways, and both parties would benefit from having as much information as possible.

Indeed, I have read job postings that I can not truly figure out how or with what technologies they work with. Sometimes though they say Angular, Vue or React as a matter of saying "Worked with component frameworks" and that seems fine for me, as long as you specify which one are you currently using.
