This research focuses on the concept of overqualification as a prevalent phenomenon in organizations. Overqualification is defined as the condition where employees' knowledge, skills, experience, and other competencies exceed the demands of their jobs. The aim of the present study was to understand and reflect on the experiences of employees who perceived themselves as overqualified. Therefore, in this research, the perception of overqualification was examined as a subjective-perceptual concept, not necessarily an objective one. By setting several exclusion criteria, 18 employees working in a governmental organization in the banking industry in Tehran were selected for interviews. Data analysis was conducted using reflexive thematic analysis method. Analytical sensitivity, subjectivity and reflexivity of the researcher, theoretical flexibility, and contextualism and positioning were described as the rationales justifying the appropriateness of this method. The data were analyzed in six steps, using tools such as thematic mapping and researcher journaling. Four main themes—"Overqualification has made a change," "I have chosen overqualification," "I have compensated for overqualification," and "A group that is not recognized"—constituted the themes forming the experience of perceived overqualification in the organization.
