Q: I have a Masters in English and History. However there are very few jobs available at my level, so I have found myself applying for jobs that might be, if you will excuse the language, beneath me. However, I’ve always worked throughout college semesters and I really want to get a foot on the ladder, even if the job is not tailored to my qualifications. I want to get a job so that I can make a positive contribution, rather than having to emigrate, an option currently on my mind. However, I find many employers seem to think I’m over-qualified and I don’t even get called to the interview stages for jobs that I am well capable of doing. Should I dumb down my CV to help me over this hurdle? (TN, email)
