It doesn't sound like an apprenticeship, or entry level when they're
looking for:


- an experienced Technical Documentation Editor
- Bachelor's degree in English, Journalism or related field
- at least four years of experience in technical authoring of digital
avionic products

Just my opinion. I'd rather flip burgers, even if I met those
qualifications.
