Entry Level?

How can a job be posted as "Entry Level" yet require experience? I thought that "Entry Level" implied no experience.

And how is one supposed to get experience if every job out there first requires experience. It seems to be a never ending cycle - can't get the job because of no experience, can't get the experience because you can't get the job.

It's very frustrating.

Enty Level = 0-1 years of experience. Never forget to play up your experience - even if not work related. i.e. entering track team scores in high school junior year equals one year of data entry experience; working the customer service desk at a retail store sometimes ment answering phones - two years experience answering multi-line phones; using a calculator - ten-key usage; all the projects in for school - eight years of experience in word processing and composition; and (my personal favorite)over ten years of experience with EXTENSIVE correspondence and letter composition ;) All very necessary for office jobs!

Dear Anonymous,
does 20+ years riding heard on my mother's children count for anything??
