I am pretty sure that everyone in the job market will at the least have the tendency to oversell themselves in a job interview. One of the reason being that our culture is full of salesmanship. If you are humble and say unimpressive things about yourself you run the increased risk of not getting the job which affects your livelihood which leads to other serious problems.
On the other hand, based on my experience and human psychology, I think, the employers' need for certain skills and certain kinds of employees tend to be over-inflated. Enough times the jobs tend to turn out to be easier than how the employers advertise the job, and more people can do the job than what the employers say. What are your opinions about these two sides of coin in our job market?
