    OMG I just got rejected for being over-qualified

    For the first time in my life, and at the ripe old age of 33, I am now over-qualified.

    Whatever will I do.

    I think actually they meant I was asking for too much money... I got the impression when the "consultancy" called me and spoke with a strong S.Indian accent, that I couldn't even understand.

      You see, this profession is filled to the brim with unrealistic motherfsckers. Motherfsckers who thought their a55 would age like wine. If you mean it turns to vinegar, it does. If you mean it gets better with age, it don't.
      Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

        Yep that's the weird thing. He did mention something about some people in India but I couldn't get his name let alone what he was trying to say, so I just allowed it.

          take it with a pinch of salt... an agent will say anything to get you off the phone without an arguement...

          he's just playing to your contractor ego!

              Oh this wasn't the agent, it was the consultancy he's recruiting for. No one seems to know what's going on any more.

                Most Consultantcies already have software developed which just needs customisation and config with end client, they usually hire a few "fluffers" to make up the numbers so they can charge end clients more. As long as the "fluffers" can manage to login to their pc thats about all there expected to do.
