TCN's March 26TH meeting will feature an exciting presentation by Abby
Kohut, entitled:
"SUCCESS FOR THE SEASONED SEARCH - THE BENEFIT OF BEING OVERQUALIFIED"
Many seasoned job seekers find themselves being called overqualified
because they have more years of experience than the job description calls
for. Learn powerful strategies to overcome your interviewer's
misconceptions about you. It's impossible to BE overqualified unless YOU
believe you ARE overqualified. In this seminar, you will learn: 1) How to
answer the overqualified question; 2) Why recruiters AND hiring managers
are concerned about hiring overqualified applicants; 3) How to change your
cover letter and resume if you believe you are overqualified; 4) Seven ways
to explain on an interview why being overqualified is an advantage.
