What’s the most ridiculous job requirement you’ve ever seen?

Busy work and answering the phone by the second ring, even if you are already in the phone.

Remote work attire requirements if visual screens are not used

asking a 60year old for his high school diploma

The most funny jobs was called people and having them hang up on me and stuff

For a Director and VP over a large engineering department, I was expected to have mastery skills driving a CAD station, PLC programming, and electrical design and do ground level design work. During the interview I explained the difference in skillset requirements between a line engineer, manager, director, and VP. While I had the skills, I was not current in them from a practice perspective. By the end of the interview the large interview team realized they spec'd the job out incorrectly. They did not realize that Director and above is the person orchestrating, driving technology, delegating, and driving strategic direction. They thought that was the marketing person's job. (again, incorrect) This company respecified the position to an engineering supervisor and lowered the pay to a ridiculously low number and used an internal engineer to do the job. Last I checked, they are failing miserably.

YIKES

The most difficult job requirement i seen was having a luxury car.

Needing a bachelors degree for entry-level position

Being told I need a degree to work in a field that I've volunteered in with proven track record for over 20 years.
And having to agree to be respectful of a dude calling himself a chick but they don't have to respect me or my beliefs of the Bible and scientific facts.
A bachelor’s degree to sell cigars for $8 an hr in 2023. Like seriously?
