I'm trying to understand why I keep getting rejected for relatively simple roles like data entry and video editing.

My background is in game development and 3D animation, so I feel I have the technical skills to learn these jobs quickly. I've had multiple interviews, but after the interview I usually don't receive a follow-up call or any feedback.

I'm starting to wonder if employers see my experience as a red flag and assume I'm overqualified, likely to leave quickly, or expecting a higher salary.

Has anyone here experienced this from either the job seeker's or hiring manager's perspective?

If overqualification is the issue, how can I present myself better for these kinds of positions without being dishonest about my background?

P.S. I used ChatGPT to help organize and clarify my thoughts for this post since explaining my situation in writing isn't my strongest skill. The experience and question are entirely my own.
