If employers are telling you that you are overqualified, they may worry that you’ll want a quick promotion or that you’ll only stay at the company until something better comes up. You can take steps to prevent this:
If the interviewer asks whether you’re overqualified for the job, explain how this job fits in with your career plans. Assure the company that you’re a loyal employee, and explain how your experience will benefit the company.
A career services staff will review it and respond via email. If it's something that can help others look for work, explore careers or succeed on the job, a version of your question and answer may even be added to the site.
Your privacy is important. If your question is published to alis, your identity will remain anonymous. Your email address and any other personally identifiable information will not be posted to the site.
If you require immediate assistance, please call the Alberta Supports Contact Centre at 1-877-644-9992 or visit alis.alberta.ca for more information about how to plan your future.
