As time goes on, it will be nearly impossible to find someone who's had "significant" MMO raiding experience
I really don't believe that significant raid experience should mean you've been doing it for 8-10 years. I think if you did it for multiple years, and did it successfully:

A) You know what it's like to keep a serious raiding schedule for more than a small blip in your life
B) You know how content feels to actually work on night after night
C) You know what it means to be prepared for raids

If you were bleeding edge:

A) You know what it's like to work on untested/lightly tested content
B) You know what it's like to hit encounters blind, before you know the "tricks"
C) You know the tricks

If you were leadership:

A) You have a good picture of what it's like to keep a raid roster together
B) You know what raid organization and guild management tools feel like to use consistently
C) You know what it takes to keep a raid focused through various content types

I'm sure people could add to that.
