Why Older Workers Get Called "Overqualified"

Why do employers call older job seekers "overqualified" for the exact role they're qualified for? As a corporate recruiter with 20+ years at Amazon, FedEx, and Korn Ferry, I've seen this excuse used to mask age bias in hiring. In this video I break down what "overqualified" really means, the assumptions employers make about older workers (outdated skills, inflexibility, being set in your ways), and what you can actually do to counter it in your job search.

If you're an older job seeker getting told you're "overqualified," "too senior," or "not the right fit," this video explains the real reason behind the rejection and how to reposition yourself so hiring managers see you differently.
