Define: Entry Level

I will be graduating from college with a BBA in management and a minor in finance. I've worked for some popular companies along the way and have what I feel is a good amount of experience. When I look for jobs online or through career fairs they seem to have a different view of "entry level."

Jobs that pay less than what I was making are asking for 5 to 10 years experience, or as many skills as would have been aquired in 5 to 20 years of working. If you are looking for a federal job through www.USAJOBS.com there is enough hoops to jump through to discourage even the most aggressive job searcher.

I wonder if anyone notices why some positions never get filled or they can't find good candidates? Maybe they are just scaring the wrong people...the people that could do the job if given the right training. So instead they interview the brave souls that are hoping for a long shot.

I feel like I need to wear a cape to all my interviews....
