I'm pretty sure alot of us have encountered some entry level job openings (associate/assistant) that require you have 2-3 years work experience, while you only have for example a one full year working experience plus 9 months internship. (or maybe less!)
Are candidates instantly disqualified if they dont meet the working years requirement?
Have anybody tried submitting anyway and got hired because of other factors like networking, extra curricular activities, involvement in societies etc?
depends on what the job posting says if it says "2-3 years of experience desired" then you can still qualify
but some postings read very firm and say "2-3 years required", and those are mostly instant rejections
Especially since HR usually dings a lot of applicants before they every get to an analyst or someone else in the department.
As illchicago mentioned above, it is dependent on what the job posting says. Many firms HR groups use software that filters & screens for key words. If it says 2 years required & ur time put in doesn't cut it, your application will get dinged & sent to the e-wastebasket. The best jobs out there (roughly 70% are unadvertised) are usually secured via connections/networking, so best to stick with that approach.
Ask the HR. They should be able to answer your questions about all their postings.
