How sneaky!  I understand the "...commensurate with qualifications and
experience" verbiage because often there is a salary range within which the
actual salary could fall, and the q and e makes the difference between the
lower end and the higher end.  However, I don't see how advertising for
lower qualifications adequately represents the position in question.  Isn't
there an awful lot of mismatch between the people in the positions and the
job requirements?
