What if, when they say you are overqualified, you give an indication that, while you might be overqualified for this particular position, you are certain there are positions that you could move into within the company over time and you'd like to get to know how the company works so that when those positions arise, you would have more knowledge about whole operations than an outside candidate? I would think this would be part of doing your research because you could find out whether there is a management training type of program with this company, etc. It could let someone know that, although this isn't your ideal final career stop, you have an interest in THAT particular company and moving up within that company rather than jumping ship at your next opportunity.

I think I'd rather hear that if I was interviewing somebody.
