What is the logic behind that?

There is no such thing as being "over qualified"

It's code for "you're a high maintenance pretentious cunt and you're only taking this job because you can't get anything better and we know you're going to abandon ship the second you do find it"

Military over here does it to. I scored too high on their test to be an officer lol. ( Netherlands btw).

Maybe intelligence is correlated with individuality and that's a no-go in military.

or expend-ability.

Basically this
>>968298
anyone who applies for a job that is way below their paygrade will get bored/find a better job very quickly and all the investment you put into training them will be wated.

This. If you know the person won't like their job there's a high chance they'll do it shittily.

>No such thing as over-qualified
Hilarious. I literally cannot get a job at most retail places because I have a B.S. I had to fucking lie on my job application to get a job at Gamestop while every place I bring my resume spits in my face telling me that they want you to have at least 2 years professional work experience before you are qualified to wipe your own ass.

They're not hiring because of your degree, they'd love to have you working there with a degree, even a shitty one.

They don't hire you because they know you're going to bail at the first opportunity.

>>968363
Most people doing retail don't stay at one place for more than six months. It's a revolving door industry, anyway.

>>968164

Yes.

Companies don't want to hire grossly over-educated/experienced employees. Because they spend so much on training usually that if you leave too early they'll have lost money, and then have to spend all that extra effort finding a new person(sometimes on short-notice) and training him all over again.

Also if you're more educated/experience you might start demanding higher salary when the company wasn't prepared to shell out more money for that specific position.

Why don't you just choose to do badly on the iq-test then?

Probably need to score within a certain range.

So between 90-95 for example, so if you were to just fail questions on purpose you'd probably get below 90, but if you answered them truthfully above 100.
