Are you experiencing career limitations based on age bias? Are managers afraid that you won’t “fit in?” Join our “most in demand” workshop series to learn how to get past gatekeepers and break down age stereotypes. Read more about this Teleclass...
Do
employers make hiring decisions based upon age? Yes, some do.
Do they
make hiring decisions based upon gender. Yes, sometimes.
Do they make hiring decisions based upon ethnicity. Yes, some do.
Biases do
exist.
The
good news is:
(1) all hiring personnel do not hold those biases and (2) beliefs about
the “older” worker are changeable. One cannot change gender, ethnicity or
chronological age, but one can change assumptions about age.
This
teleclass will review the research that disproves negative stereotypes. You
will learn the often overlooked, but critically important actions for 50+
candidates that lead to interviews and the interview behaviors more likely to
lead to job offers.
