It's an open secret in Silicon Valley that most tech companies prefer younger workers. Recruiters do what hiring managers ask for. Most hiring managers won't say it explicitly- they'll say things like 2-5 years experience from top schools or from the FANG companies with experience in modern technologies.

It's not age discrimination to ask for relevant job skills and education.

How does putting a 2-5 year experience range filter for job skills or education better than saying 2 or more years? Someone with 6 years of experience doesn't have fewer job skills than someone in the 2-5 year range.
