Overqualified generally means you are a CFO applying for a controller job or a Director of Marketing of a $20 million firm applying for a Marketing Manager job of a start-up company ... you bring more experience to the table than the job needs and employers get afraid that you will be bored or will leave when a better job comes along. -How to deal with being overqualified with your search? -How do you advise people to craft their resume if they want to apply to a job that might be overqualified for? -Is it wise to dumb down your resume to appear less qualified by removing certain duties and roles? -Career changer? -What can you do in the interview to lessen the perception of being overqualified? -Last words of advice?
