Show Notes

Many people worry about not ticking all the boxes on the selection criteria. But what if the opposite is true?

In this episode, Helen McCabe and Jamila Rizvi explore what to do if you're overqualified for a role. They share their top tips for framing your work history in a job interview and discuss whether being told you're "too qualified" could be a coded way of saying "too old".
