Are you kidding?

I would guess that they meant 2-3 years.

I'm thinking that it was a typo as well. To say that a place wants 23 years of experience, well, that's sort of an odd number and I'm thinking that a mistake was made.

Yup that was a typo, keep looking don't give up.

It's a typo sweetie. 2-3 years. Let's keep our head about us here, shall we?

23 years???? 2 TO 3, my dear. But pretty funny typo, for sure. Unless they have a very specific nurse in mind for the position who has 23 years of experience......

Well, I feel like an idiot now. It didn't even occur to me that it was a typo! Maybe potential employers can detect a lack of common sense and that is why they've got no interest in me. But, I did point it out to some friends and none of them made that assumption. So at least I'm not alone in my idiocy.

Don't feel bad.. You are just very stressed about finding a job. Just use this as an example to take a deep breath and start again.

Probably a typo since "23" and "2-3" is an easy mistake. Though I HAVE seen some pretty random requirments for jobs that are clearly reserved for someone. I saw a position that required 15 years exp as an NP in community/geriatric health once--not likely to be a mistake for "1-5"--and not so many folk will fit that criteria.

But I think in your case you're probably good to go--if you have 2-3 years exp, that is :)

lol don't worry about it. stress will do that to ya
