After looking for as good job since the middle of December, I was ready to just give up. Interviewed for numerous positions and I get "Well your over qualified" or "Sorry but we found candidates that matched better". But I kept on and finally landed a good job. The pay is "ok" but since I get a military pension I can work with it. So just don't give up out there. There is a job somewhere out there with your name on it.

When you think your at your lowest you get kicked in the groin. Was told I was not a good fit for a job I applied for and this was the reply I received when asked why.

Today Garda Talent Network Corporation sent me an disappointed email saying we don't want to hire you even though you have no criminal records and you have a firearms license with SORA card and military police experience we can't pay you 15.00 or more per hour our pay is 12.85 thanks for applying do not reapply to us in Edison, New Jersey., that's their answer to me. very stupid

Every job I guess they tell me I'm too I'm overqualified for or I go to jobs where I am qualified for but they say that I don't fit the part that they're wanting maybe it's because I don't know it's it's strange to me I work pumping concrete and concrete finishing overseeing 50 guys also at a tree cutting business which I'm very very good at but I had to get a real job because circumstances be added may I would like to either be a super or cut trees again in Dothan if anybody can help me out with that it'll be greatly appreciated

I fill out application after application! Go to interview after interview! I'm willing to put up with a lot in order to obtain employment but; I never thought that I would be told that I am OVERQUALIFIED! I feel like I'm being punished for going to school and being successful in all I set out to do! I won't allow that to stop me. My day is coming!

Today's job market is tuff depends on what skills u have and experience u have. If u r overqualified for the job. All u can do is make your resume sound good without stretching the true. Please hang in there something will come around b patient

I have been looking for work for over 3 months I have over 6 years of Staffing Management I go to interviews over and over again only to receive a call saying we have decided to go with another candidate closer to us, I’m so overwhelmed and when I apply for a more simple position I’m overqualified HELP!

Only jobs I seem to be able to get is part time minimum wage work. Does not seem to matter what my skills are or my education or past successes. Its been that way my entire working like. I can't seem to get anything better. People around me act like I have never worked a day in my life. That the current job is my first job. Low wage work then long periods of unemployment. So tired of it.

I applied for a job but the employer told me she felt I had too much experience after reviewing my resume. As a result she noted in the company data base that I should not be hired by their company, So even though I applied at a different location with the same company the other manager said she would not hire based on what based on what the other manager had placed in my file. She said they were looking for long term employee and she felt I would be a short term employee. So they will not hire me as a result of that. Is that legal?

I moved to Michigan from Texas and after 20+ years at a senior level HR Manager, find it difficult to land a job in the area. Mainly because the salaries are so low, and many employers are only looking for folks with 3-5 years of experience. How do you get past the "you are over qualified and we can't afford your skills?"
