Junior and senior is related to responsibility and pay, not skill level. It is also worth noting that a job advert is a list of their "ideal" requirements, so if you don't meet them try applying anyway (or just claim you've been developing in your own time for "years").

A PHB's idea of junior is somebody who jumps up, salutes and does as he is told. And is content with getting paid peanuts. Gen Y need not apply.

I took my first two jobs at crap pay because I just wanted to learn somewhere. I'm Gen Y. Not sure if you were trying to start another bs "This generation is entitled rabble rabble" argument..
