Chances are you find it hard to understand why knowing what needs to be done doesn’t automatically translate into concrete and effective action. When it comes to being overqualified, there are very few resources that actually give you a blueprint. At best, your college counselors, and even labor representatives will help you polish your resume, or show you ways to improve your performance during an interview. What they most likely won’t do is tell you how to gear each part of your job hunting process to overcoming issues associated with being overqualified. As may be expected, when you don’t know how to do something, you will make a lot of mistakes, and eventually feel that finding a job is impossible.

I will never tell you that rebuilding your career is easy. I have done it three times; and each time was a struggle I could have done without. Nevertheless, what I learned over the years amounts to a literal treasure trove of advice on how to get a job when you are overqualified. If you need a blueprint, then let me show you what needs to be done. I sincerely hope that you will visit my website, and learn more about my ebook, Overcoming the Overqualified Myth. If you can’t get a job, and don’t know where to start, this book will take you from the initial phone call right through post-interview follow up.
