[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a gazillion admin jobs open at Booz, Deloitte, PWC, Jacobs etc. And the HR dropdown on the hiring menu doesn't even go below 65K.[/quote] I’m 50 and have been looking for 6 months. I have a masters degree but it’s completely outdated and the long gap in employment seems impossible to overcome. I’d love to know about these positions PP speaks of that are all above 65k. I was just searching Booz and see much lower (40s). I’ve applied for lots of jobs from non-profit to government to corporate and have only landed 1 interview (didn’t get it because they were worried about tech skills). I’m smart, focused, have great communication skills and learn quickly so it’s very demoralizing to think that staying home as put me on par with someone who didn’t even attend college. [/quote]
