[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just hired a 61 year old, and they're a fantastic, talented addition to the team. Go for it! [/quote] I'm in my 60s applying for a fed job, but I have had no luck, so I'm glad to hear you hired one of my peers. I'm looking in a new field, where my old experience doesn't count, so that's made it much more difficult. But I'm still applying. I had one interview where they clearly thought I was overqualified for the job, even though I was eager to take it. BTW, when you're in your 60s, you are not looking to climb the career ladder, or even to do particularly interesting or challenging work. I want to do work that occupies my mind, uses some of my skills and keeps me busy and contributing to a worthwhile endeavor. [/quote]
