Why we read it this way (9)

The degree requirement is effectively None — the JD explicitly accepts four years of equivalent work experience in lieu of a Bachelor's degree.

The '4 years of equivalent work experience' alternative to the degree is treated as the overall years minimum, since it is the only role-level experience figure stated.

DNS and DHCP troubleshooting are listed together in the requirements block as a single compound skill; they are emitted as separate skills since they are distinct technologies.

SharePoint is listed in the requirements block with a parenthetical '(Microsoft 365 preferred)' indicating a preference for the M365 variant, but the skill itself is required.

ServiceNow is listed as 'preferred' in the JD; common ITSM alternatives are noted.

Mobile device support is explicitly called 'a plus' in the posting.

CompTIA Network+ is listed under Preferred certifications.

SOC confidence is Medium: desktop/endpoint support sits at the boundary between 15-1244 (systems/network admins) and general IT support; the role primarily operates and maintains endpoints rather than building software, supporting the 15-1244 classification.

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): asset management.
