I'm curious how great you're. I think you'd be an excellent engineer even in America or China. Don't believe some demands like 'Know at least 4 programming languages and all of their frameworks'. You don't need those many knowledge. You only need some patient.

Hey, thanks for taking the time to read my post.

As Aiden pointed out, it seems that expectations can sometimes be dependent on the country/demand but also I think sometimes some employers over advertise the positions and their expectations, even if the are happy to work with less.

As for how great I am... I am still very much a beginner and think I always will be given how much our industry constantly changes with new versions, languages, frameworks etc etc. There is always something new to learn. That said, thank you for the compliment.

Yes. Some companies declare they need those techniques but in fact you don't apply those after employment. Whatever I wish you luck and you'd succeed I think.
