Overqualified

Are you “OVERQUALIFIED?”

What does that mean? Possibly that: 1. Your qualifications are a threat to existing management.

2. Employers think you won’t be willing to perform menial tasks.

3. You are too old, or young in their eyes.

4. It is believed you may get bored in the role.

5. Company is worried it can’t meet your salary expectations.

6. You didn’t perform well in the interview, but they don’t want to tell you that.

7. They don’t see you as a good cultural fit.

8. Employers think you are taking the job to bridge a gap, and won’t hang around for long.

9. You are genuinely too qualified for a specific role. “Overqualified” is a sad euphemism used by far too many hiring managers and recruiters. How do I hire? Based on these criteria, in this order of importance: Attitude Skill/ability to perform the role. Future potential or past experience/achievements. Workplace culture “fit.” Academic qualifications.

That's all for it!
