I recently applied for a job internally and was rejected after speaking with TA. I have 95% of the qualifications but was rejected due to lack of a specific experience. All the posts I've read say go ahead and apply for positions, even if you don't have 100% of the qualifications, so I do... I just find it disheartening that most companies would rather hire someone who may fit the box on paper but in reality aren't right for the role rather than train someone who may actually fit the role well. I've seen it happen more than once with this company already. How do you all cope?
