How the **** can you have too much experience for the position BEFORE an interview.
Its not like I can walk in, and 15 minutes later know their entire IT system, the ins and out of said system and how to fix any problems they have over their exsisting IT support and engineers.
I can relate to this. I have gone to a few Interviews in the past for postions that sounded awesome and was denied for the same reason - Too qualified or too experienced for the position.

I was like WTF?

However I later found out through a 3rd party that the whole interview process in one of those companies was a sham to satisfy HR. In reality the interviewer was already pre-set to hire a relative so he needed to make it look 'professional' by holding out interviews and choosing the 'most suitable' candidate.
