Abstract

The research on overqualification has mainly examined negative consequences of overqualification. Defined, overqualified employees have surplus talent and thus can be excellent employees if managed properly; yet empirical evidence is lacking. This symposium explores largely ignored positive attitudinal and behavioral consequences of overqualification and factors that stimulate these positive outcomes.
