[IPAC-List] Requiring years of experience for jobs

[Robinson, Nancy]

Does anyone have a logical or empirical way of determining the years of experience requirements when hiring for jobs?

We have gotten frequent complaints from our department managers that we require too many years of experience for our various jobs and they have trouble finding someone with that level of experience (or if they do find someone, they are looking for a higher salary).

I believe at one time we had a rubric for determining the experience criteria (based on required education level and, of course, complexity of job), but nothing definite and nothing I feel confident in.

So before I start changing the requirements willy-nilly, I'd like to see what others are doing.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you,
