Here is the honest answer from someone who has hired people.
If you are over qualified for the job, the deal is that you will keep looking and quickly switch to a job better suited for your talents.
That means, I need to spend a bunch of time and money looking for a new candidate and spend money and time on training and getting them up to speed.
Hiring someone is extremely time consuming and pretty expensive. There are tons of no tangible things that go into considering who to hire.
Crapitalism is amazing, isn't it? Guess I'll have to die because the system is set up in a way to both force working-class people to constantly look for work, but also to make it so that people who are viewed as capable of finding work elsewhere to be denied employment.
You need to come up with a reason why you won't leave in a few months. Caring commitments for your family, better work life balance, really enjoying excelling in a role where you are competent, looking for longer term career at a single place etc
