Job interview excuses for not getting it

[boldie]

I'm looking for a normal job and not something I used to do ages ago..just a simple management position roundabout the 30k mark would do me nicely.

I got this one again today (about the 3rd time this month); "We feel the job just wouldn't be challenging enough for you, you'd be more suited to a senior management role in our company unfortunatly there aren't any positions available at that level at the moment"

What is it about employers that they think you want a "challenging" job? I want a nice easy 9-5/8-5 job that pays me 30k a year and leaves me with plenty of free time in the evening and weekends....If I wanted a job that would be a challenge I'd apply for one! Even if I explain to them that I am fed-up with jobs that require me putting in 60-70 hours a week they still don't get it as they think you surely want to make more and more money even at the expense of your private life?

Blah.

This is their polite way of saying "**** off, you're **** and we wouldn't employ you if you were the last bloke on earth". They word it in this way so that you won't lose confidence in applying for other jobs.

i mean 3 in one month..........
