if you have only 3 months out of the 5 years they require, then they are desperate for just about anyone and probably most of the people applying have no experience in whatever experience they need 
erm no. its called having a background in the field they focus on but not in the position or industry.
say you're hiring a claims officer for a fire & flood company. why would you hire someone with 5 years claims experience over a 3 month experienced claim officer who has 2 years previous experience with fires and floods in an emergency responder & investigation role?
latter is more qualified.

Depends on the job. And the specific requirements of the job.
very true
