Worst thing to hear from a job
You have to much experence....... Yep thats right. A tech place that pays 35-40k a year, would rather hire some unexperienced college yuppie; then me with the experence and knowledge they require.

Sometimes companies like to higher people with less experience so they can mold them into what the company wants. Some companies may think that if you're over experienced then you won't be productive because it's become repetitive for you.

there's also a fear that someone with a lot of experience will not stay at a lower level job for long. Easier to hire someone low-level that will probably stay put for a while.
