Thanks, but you're overqualified
Not even sure what to think about this, but I finally see why people get bothered about these sorts of things. Cisco had a job for someone to work in their international affairs division, specifically someone who understands international processes from a political perspective. This seemed something perfect for me. Well, I was contacted today to be told that I'm "overqualified" for the position. Apparently, they were looking for someone with little to no experience in international affairs to handle their international affairs. Okay, I'll bite. Does this make any sense to anyone? The pay was agreeable, and so was everything else.
Is this the universal code for "you're too old" or is there something else going on I don't understand?
Stumble It!

No, actually, it's part of a conspiracy. I've told the Human Resource Management Association of America to not hire you, so that you get so desperate that you come back to coordinate "Penelope implementation." Bwahahaha.
