Job Search & 4-year degrees

My take on the whole "four-year-degree" concept was that they are asking for 120+ accredited semester credit hours combined into the completion of some sort of bachelors degree. I've read that a regular bachelors degree consists of three years of study in some parts of Europe (I assume the equivalent of 90 semester hour credits?), while they call the four-year version the "honours bachelor." I always thought this was the reason for the "four-year-degree" distinction.
