I'm frankly getting pretty tired of this. Every single job I apply for I hear one of two things: "you're overqualified" or "You don't have enough experience." I'm feeling pretty schizophrenic about the whole job thing.

Apparently I'm only eligible for a McJob where they don't ask you about your past at all and make minimum wage or a six figure job where I'm responsible for hundreds of people and oversee a 5 million dollar budget. but *nothing* in between.

Aw man. :(

Get the megajob and descend the corporate ladder!

There's obviously such thing as being overqualified for a position but not overqualified for a company as a whole. I don't think regional Google offices have the same freedom of hiring as the main campus does but I could be wrong.
