Which is why it helps to have a company name so you can do some investigation beyond the job posting to see if there is something that remotely interests you about the company. At the least you could find a webpage that has some marketing speak about what it is they do or hope to do or you may be able to ping your network to find someone who can give you the inside scoop.
Again, I may have missed the secret handshake because even internal job postings at the company I currently work for (and have for over four years) baffle me. I frequently talk to people at work and ask them what they do and get a title, which typically means nothing to me, and then I ask again "But what do you do?" Even the job I have currently has changed a good deal in the time I have been in it. I find the whole thing difficult to fathom. Again, stuff I have read suggests my befuddlement is hardly unique.
If it helps you enormously to know the company name, you have some kind of advantage over me.
