Of course 

Should happen coordination and cooperation between education and the needs of the labor market 

So that we can bridge the gap between the number of graduates and wanted to work

1. A job migration possibility

2. Salary budget mismatch for an overqualified person--Management may not be willing for a lower pay, but       their budgets should match.

3. Higher qualification and skill may create a communication mismatch an overqualified may tend to go for       higher standards in performance which may create problem among other staff-a possibility.

For the above reasons and more, the employer may not be willing to accommodate an Overqualified one.

Employers may be concerned for overqualification for a multitude of reasons. Some Examples are: A bored employee, The possibility of expecting a promotion quicker and Expecting a higher salary etc.  In a poor job market, many job seekers are applying for jobs that may be beneath their skill set. Being overqualified is a danger that these seekers face. If you’re desperate to land anywhere, you may be setting yourself up for a fall.

Definitely threats to get the job in somewhat because over qualified can search job to other organization.

Yes.

  1. You're not likely to stay with the job - you're likely to move on as soon as you find something better.

  2. You might be bored with the job and not take it seriously.

  3. They assume there's something wrong with you that you couldn't get a job more appropriate for your qualifications.

Of course, it must be compatible with the required qualifications in the labor market, it may result in the employment of persons qualified low-or non-identical with the specialization required for the function of many of the problems that accrue to productivity in the deterioration and function further tensions and objections to employ non-qualified and efficient.

Job market needs the required candidates for the required positions but if there is unbalance either in the positions or candidates qualification then it really affects the whole scenario. A highly qualified will be not suitable for a position for less qualified because he will be never satisfy from his salary, benefits and work. This will force him to look for other companies and runaway. This creates job market in a situation where employers always in search for the right candidates. Similarly if they hire less qualified then the output or progress definitely affects. So a balance situation is in the favor of job market with candidates satisfactions.

Respectable Gentlemen I just want to add that if u are ready to work and not choosy about the job profile there should not be any problem.Being well qualified u can work in multiple profiles. If U are an MBA u can look after the marketing dept as well as finance and HR.

A well qualified resource can be put to multiple uses only if the human resource is ready to work any or multiple profiles. The intervewer should estimate whether the person really needs the job. Wheter hewould last. How long did he spend in his earlier concern.
