Overqualified

Why is it

When it comes to seemingly the 
most important critical job's of all

The most qualified of all

Seem to be passed over

Deemed overqualified

Jennifer's speaks the truth Christopher, they can feel threatened by hiring someone, that could highlight their own shortcomings, but more than that, could also start strikes by sowing dissent amongst other workers, yep hope that partially answers you excellent question, cheers David

Perhaps they are over the age of being employed - retirement age that the company requires. Perhaps the one that is thinking of employing him, fears his or her position in he company and because they themselves have not got half of the candidates qualification, they send them on their way. I could write a book about this because we are a personnel company involved in the placing of medical staff for hospitals. It happens every day my friend very sad. I could go on forever. enjoyed. hugs, Jenn.

Unfortunately or fortunately Madina was a figure head not a politician. His dream of a rainbow nation was surpassed by others sadly seeking the pot of gold at the end of it
