These people said I am overqualified in this interview. Is that a negative or positive feedback? Time will tell. 😂

Yes, never landed a job where that phase was used. Qualified is the phrase you want.

Overqualified = you have more experience than we need and we won’t pay you what you are worth so not moving forward. They don’t want to hire you only to have you leave when you land something that respects what you know and have done. It’s stupid. I would prefer to hire someone that’s amazing at a pay scale we can agree to that can make my team better. If you leave in a year yea it suck’s and I have to replace you but my team benefits from your experience. So many companies just suck and are shortsighted

Additional Posts in Laid Off in Tech Support Group

Was laid off in Sept. Unfortunately we will be seeing many more coming. It's what happens in a recession. Unfortunately I now also have my age against me. Not in a mentally good place at the moment.

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

I would like to stay in tech and I’m giving it a few weeks before I start pivoting to more traditional supply chain roles. Thanks.

I’ve been lay off this afternoon because low performance, it just two weeks ago I talked to my manager and told her that she’s micromanaging me a lot and I need more autonomy at my work. I didn’t like what they’ve done to me specially I’ve been redundant from the previous role before joining this company. I cannot sleep please any plan’ action and what to answer for the reason why you leave your company? I’ve been in 3 jobs for the last 2 years.
