For 2 years now I'm unemployed and I have sent my resume to multiple recruiters that they are trying really hard to help me find a job.
Many candidate employers told them that I'm overqualified and thought at first it was a joke.
Then I went to various interviews and indeed within my 2-year unemployment span I would get rejected with the now fully-accustomed term of 'overqualified'.
A few days ago that I was rejected for yet another time I have decided to write an article, kind of a mixture of ranting and asking them in a way.
For those who are interested you can read it at https://stefanos82.github.io/posts/2017/05/28/when-you-are-overqualified-whatever-that-means.html and answer accordingly if you want.
I feel so worthless right now, but I'm so eager to learn new things.
Would you be so kind to provide me your valuable feedback? You are my only hope, cheers.
P.S. I was trying to get rid of programming ten years ago and I talked to entrepreneur I knew, wished to switch to my original profession through the job he offered. He tought of me as overqualified, but we agreed very soon - after I confirmed I'll work 168 hours/month for starting 400€...
P.P.S. Croatia...
