We counted how often Bechtel's own 31 ads (those with a full description) state each requirement. This shows the filters the ads apply before anyone reads a resume. We have no data on why candidates are rejected after applying, and we do not guess.
Years of experience. 31 of 31 ads (100%) state a number of years. The median is 10 years; 94% ask for 5 or more and 61% for 10 or more.
