This is stupid. If you are a react shop and you would have been ok to see some Angular on the CV, then you are clearly expecting the new hire to do some learning on the job. Why not try to figure out if this candidate is up to the task of learning your framework?

Also I tend not to put technologies on my CV unless I have done something more substantial than online classes and tutorials. I don’t want to have to answer an interview question about “what’s your experience with Foo?” with “oh just some tutorials...” . That would cast doubt on the rest of my experience. Ask the candidate if they have experience in any frameworks and they might surprise you and say that they have been learning one in their spare time.

Agreed, I dip my toes in a lot of things but would never consider putting them on my resume unless I have at least a substantial project that I can talk about in depth.
