That's not just craigslist, that's all of job postings.

I remember working at CareerBuilder, I would sometimes help clients write their openings. Often I would either have to fix their post to make it say SOMETHING about what the job actually is, otherwise they get thousands of people that have no reason applying for the job.

The other thing that would happen is the job posting would be so specific that no one would ever want it. Almost all jobs suck, and these postings would explain why they sucked. No one ever applied to them. Also, when companies use interoffice names and acronyms, people have no idea what the hell they are talking about. "Must have the ability to reproduce specs to the CAUTSFSFG's in the bridge, hub and east wing" WTF is a CAUTSFSFG? Where is the hub and east wing?

There needs to be a balance.
