As others have mentioned, there's no real standard for "senior" developers in the industry. I ran into this problem back in July when I was job hunting - half the companies I looked at, I'd qualify as senior, and half of them I'd qualify as junior.

Their thinking (and I know some people who've found this) might be that it's easier to get hired as a slightly-overqualified junior developer and promoted to senior within a year than to get hired as an average senior dev.

I guess I understand that rationale, but this was explicitly a project.
