[quote=Anonymous]I have to kind of agree with the hiring manager PP.

OP, it is exactly that fact that you have skills that I wouldn't hire you. Like any employers, a lot of time and effort goes into training. You aren't going to be happy long in an entry level position, so the chances that I can retain you long enough in that position to recoup the cost of actually hiring you are much less than if I hire a new grad.

Would it be easier and better for me to hire you? Yes, but I have a business to run and it isn't as simple as finding a candidate for right now. Ideally, I don't want to have to fill the same position very often. You're only looking at the position I have to fill as a stepping stone or means to an end, because you can't find anything better. As soon as you have getting back into the workforce on your resume, you'll be looking for something else (likely elsewhere) and I'll be back at square 1 with the same position to fill. The new grad actually needs the position and will stick around for a while while getting the experience they need. In the meantime, I can groom them to my organizations needs so I can help them move up when it's time.
