The Benefits of Being Overqualified
Many seasoned job seekers find themselves being
called overqualified because they have more years
of experience than the job description calls for. Learn
powerful strategies to overcome your interviewer's
misconceptions about you. It's impossible to BE
overqualified unless YOU believe you ARE
overqualified.
