Well I have been doing this for 22 years and one thing I have learned if it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck and acts like a duck it more than likely a duck. Actions or lack of actions speak louder than words and if I wanted some professional burger flippers I would use his approach. If I wanted someone who could be an AE for my company I would list some idea of stability about the company, what type of benefits, and what type of machine controls the AE would be needed for. Also a salary range would go a long way to maybe getting someone who knows what they are doing to take the offer seriously.
Something along the lines of 10+ years of manufacturing experience, in the areas of CNC machining. Marco programming in either Fanuc, Siemens, Mazak, APT, or NCL would be invaluable to this position. Cam experience in either PRO-E, CATIA, UG, Esprit, Mastercam, Surfcam, Edgecam, Delcam, or etc is required for this position. Post processor experience with apt, basic, Java, or other language is a plus. Machine experience related to Mill/Turn machines such as 4 axis lathes capable of pinch turning, Mill/Turn machines with fixed C axis milling capabilities, or Mill/Turn machine with full 5 axis capabilities with lower turret and dual spindles, or any combination of the above. Horziontal machining or programming experience should be but not limited to 400mm to 1000mm pallets with full 4 axis rotary and/or 5 axis capabilities. Pallet pool programming and ROI experience is also a plus. Yadada company has been established for 25 years, and if growing and had an annual sales of yadadad million in sales. Benefits include full Dental, Health, 401k, profit sharing, sick time, disability insurance and education reimbursement. Job requires 40% travel and some trade shows.

Again I think what I said about a duck or an AE can be an easy decision just depends on how serious someone really is. quack quack.
One last thing 2 posts really make me duck bill go crazy. I do not want to see some younger person get into to something that just does not have a good feel to it and will do what I can protect others.
