That's one of my other complaints. If you are hiring someone for a full-time position if they are anyway decent they can learn whatever skills are required. Im sick of being overlooked for jobs because I know CodeIgniter rather then Cake or am more familiar with MySQL then Oracle.

This is partly due to recruiters really having no idea how to judge candidates other than scanning resumes and cover letters for buzz words.
