Why we read it this way (5)

The posting explicitly welcomes recent graduates and frames 3+ years of experience as interchangeable with a relevant degree, making this a Junior-level role despite the 3-year figure in the requirements block.

SCCM and Symantec Ghost are listed together as imaging tools for the same task; Symantec Ghost is captured as an alternative to SCCM rather than a separate skill.

Engineering software (AutoCAD, UG/Unigraphics, CATIA, SolidWorks) appears in the 'What You'll Do' narrative rather than a formal requirements section, so it is marked preferred. UG (Unigraphics/NX) is omitted as a standalone skill since it is a less-common alias; AutoCAD and CATIA are retained as the named tools.

Helpdesk/ticketing system experience is explicitly called 'a plus' in the posting.

The role title is 'Desktop System Administrator' but the day-to-day work is primarily end-user/desktop support and hardware operations, placing it between 15-1244 (Network and Computer Systems Administrators) and 15-1232 (Computer User Support Specialists); 15-1244 is chosen as the primary code given the sysadmin title and asset/inventory management duties.
