It could also simply be poor phrasing -- CCIE is considered overqualified for the job, or (possibly) too specialized. If that sounds bizarre, think from another angle: maybe the job is not so much Cisco-networking centric, but does have some Cisco networking involved. A CCIE has focused almost exclusively in the recent past on networking (and specifically, on Cisco networking). The URL as posted did not work for me, and I don't have the entire job description in front of me. A statement taken out of context may be read many ways--and they don't always include the way it would be taken in the full context.
