Jt,

exactly. the way I see it, once you get the interview, your quals don't mean too much. If you get the interview, you have already passed that "check" in the process. It is now a matter of how the interview goes. Maybe one is wearing a blue tie and they don't like the color blue. At this point they will make the decison to hire/not hire you for any or no reason at all. I would only take issue with this process if they hire an individual that does not meet their req'd mins before someone else that does. Otherwise there is not much one can do about it.
