And yet I see a lot of job ads listing MongoDB.

If I went into an interview and asked why they chose a document-oriented database, and that one in particular, think I'd be popular? (I like to play with new techologies, too, but it seems odd to see it mentioned as a requirement.)



Many job ads are written by HR, based on a list of technologies that developers naively provided them. Some of our job ads have technologies that we briefly used once in an experiment that was never more than 20% complete, while MongoDB (which we use in production) isn't currently listed.3
