Confidence is one thing and arrogance is another. Over the years, I have learned a lot, increased my skills and searched for new opportunities. This confidence has served me well while overemployed.

I am confident in what I know and what I do. I am respected by colleagues and leadership, but what I am not is arrogant. Have you ever suspected someone as overemployed because they are arrogant?
