The 40+ Career Search: Debunking the Myths

This webinar is FREE!

Do employers make hiring decisions based upon age?

The bad news is that whether it’s age, gender, or ethnicity, the hiring manager may make assumptions about the ability of a person to do the job.

The good news is that beliefs about the “older” worker are changeable. We cannot change our age, but we can change assumptions about our qualifications.

This webinar will cover the following topics:

• The myths - beliefs about generations in the workplace
• Biases as barriers - yours, theirs and ours
• How to create a contemporary image: handling the age factor on resumes and in interviews
