[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am highly skilled and considered an expert in my field, yet cant seem to even get a reply to job applications. Is it my age?[/quote] It’s ageism. People think you will be too expensive, chafe at having younger colleagues or management (culture fit), and may retire soon. I think it starts earlier for women than men, but by 50 I think the perception is the same for both genders. I’m sorry. Hopefully you can find something through your consulting work. [/quote]
