Forty-four percent of resumes presented to hiring managers are submitted by unqualified applicants, according to a study of 501 hiring managers by Robert Half and CareerBuilder. The 2009 EDGE Report also found that 47 percent of hiring managers cited under-qualified applicants as their most common hiring challenge.
About 61 percent said they are willing to pay for qualified candidates and would negotiate higher compensation if that meant getting the right person for the job.
