Overqualified
Too expensive to hire/retain
What metrics determine
being “over qualified?”
Only here for benefits Who Doesn’t Want Benefits?
Poor Health/Low Energy Did I get enough sleep last night?
Am I practicing positive thinking?
Lack of Technical Skills Is there technical training available?
HOW TO AVOID
HIRING DISCRIMINATION
![Page 19: 50+ The Forgotten Workforce - North Carolina · 55+ in the Workforce Occupations Employment growth, projected 2016-2026 (percent) Percent of Workers Ages 55+ and older, 2018 Median](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060706/60727b07a11b1433b52bc66b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
STEREOTYPE RESOLUTION
They are not in it for the long run Employers can’t be sure that any
applicant will stay with them.
This statement is not factual.
Overqualified
Too expensive to hire/retain
Make sure qualifications are clearly
defined in the job description
Only here for benefits Not many on the payroll are able to
work without benefits
Health/Energy Make sure applicant is mentally
prepared, and had proper sleep,
before interview
Lack of Technical Skills Refer online technical training
