So true. I tried for YEARS to get an Auditor job or a position in the NSA (with a person inside helping me).
With 3 degrees, I think I am overqualified.
They had "testimonials" on the one job site for my auditor positions and I noticed something...most of them were from a.)minorities b.)women c. minority women. Their quotes did NOT make them look very intelligent either...hate to say it, but it's a legitimate observation.
So I'm apparently overqualified and too white.
I more than meet the requirements outlined in the job listings and understand they have a very strict formatting preference with their resumes (had tips from someone in NSA), but I applied for probably a dozen positions over years and never even heard a response.
Maryland was my locality focus, as well as some Federal jobs in PA (near Harrisburg).
I suppose I'll keep trying. I am not unhappy with my current job, in fact I love it...but I'm always looking to improve myself and my family's life.
