I've been walking in those shoes too.. I recently applied for a position that I was very well suited to. I got an email saying "we have received your resume and we'll keep you in mind if another position comes up" On the surface it would seem like a positive message, however, it equals, you are not getting an interview, or the job for that matter. Another position is very unlikely to come up there in the future because it is a small office. I would rather hear nothing, than get emails like that. They just grind in the fact that I've been looking for ages and getting nowhere.
I've been there too, that simply sucks! I see they feel they have to pay you more if you are overqualified (at least here that's the main reason why companies turn you down in this case), but if you are (or if you'd be) OK without them paying more, why not? that's something I could never understand...I hope you'll have better luck somewhere in the close future!
Yeah it was an apprenticeship so there's a 'flat rate' for what you are paid, it wasn't a 'dog grooming' specific one although they had their own in house scheme it was a general 'animal care' and well I've essentially done that already through college. So I suppose that makes sense because for the most part they'd be teaching me stuff I already know so there's no 'point' to hiring me but then I thought that'd save them some work.
