[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not looking to leave my job, but these last couple of months I have been "softly" looking at jobs. In 3 months, I got 3 interviews that made it to the final stage after 20 applications. And I had one offer..I didn't take it even though it was for more money. I am 47 and this really proved to me that it's easier to find a job if you are currently employed. What is this the case? One of the reasons I did this soft search is to see what kind of challenges I will be facing at my age. [/quote] Are you male? I'm surprised you received so many interviews at 47.[/quote] I love how the threshold for ageism continually drops on this board. "Late 30s? Better hope you like the job you're in - it's the last one you'll ever have!"[/quote] As a newly turned 40 year old fed, I find it terrifying. I definitely can't afford to "retire" at this age. So I hope DCUM is exaggerating. [/quote]
