Read both posts! Then consider the statistic from Hewlett-Packard about how men happily apply for jobs if they meet 60% criteria, but women won't apply unless they meet 100% of them.
And then throw your insecurities in the damn bin & apply for the job anyway. #JobHuntingLikeAManhttps://twitter.com/cynixy/status/1278592952164646913 …

Yep! My fiance's older brother told me this once, hearts ago. I couldn't believe it. (He is 10 years older and from memory was already a manager at the time) "Ellen, if you match 100% of the requirements, you're overqualified."
Totally this. Job descriptions are written aspirationally - they're spreading the net far & wide to try catch as many people as possible, but nobody is going to match up to everything. Those unicorns don't exist. Just apply for the damn job.
