"Skill mismatch" could also mean experience mismatch. I would imagine a mismatch is more often about a company wanting someone with 10 years experience in a particular domaine than about a Java developer needing to learn python.

You can't take an online course or build a couple side projects and be qualified to run a 1M+ qps distributed system.

it can also be a sign of company looking for graduates to hire for cheap, so they're looking for inexperienced only.
