[quote=Anonymous]I am over 50 and have not found that my age is an issue. Of course I only listed my last 3 jobs on my résumé. In the 3 months I left my last job, I had 3 interviews and 2 job offers. I will take the 2nd job if I can not get a consulting gig in the next couple of weeks. I work in a technical area that requires quite a bot of experiences. Still when I go to trade conferences, I am out of place: 90% of the people around me are white boys in their 20s. I feel like their mother! In the long run, I think I will be better off being an independent consultant: since I get paid by the hours, the clients do not care anything about me as long as I get the job done. [/quote]
