Know your worth. Keep it real, but know exactly what you bring to the table as an employee and how much that’s worth. If you don’t know, figure it out.
When interviewing, pay attention to any point of conversation that implies that the role is less than your worth and ask questions. You may dodge a huge bullet.
This is good advice but my manager literally told me that I’m overqualified for the role I was applying and he’d prefer to have me in the office drafting.
I took the role I applied for because I insisted on it, only because the idea of working in an office sketches me out big time and I’d prefer to work in the shop testing and doing field service and ultimately make more money via overtime (industrial electrician work)
