[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think for women with expertise they can find work faster because they are willing to roll up their sleeves. Many older men have been in upper management for a long time, they are good at mainly telling people what to do or leveraging their networks and relationships to form their mini silos. This doesn’t transfer well to other companies and they find themselves up against their much younger and savvier counterparts. They are less likely to have kept up on their training or acquired new skills so the ability to get hired can be an uphill battle.[/quote] Well those "women with expertise" also play their gender card a lot. And it's "cool" for companies to show that they are hiring and promoting women. Personally I don't think either gender has an advantage. And sadly our society tends to vote women more harshly as they age. I work with women in their 40s and I can clearly see how they are self conscious of their age.[/quote]
