Think & Ask: News

Description

Aside from personal or family trauma, the loss of a professional job is the most challenging life-hazard facing men and women who are older than 40-years of age. Job loss itself quickly turns into a 'personal' trauma. You are powerless over the employer's decision. For the years you toiled a standard 60-hour week (in the United States,) your effort was in vain. Your only hope is to find a new professional job...quickly.

But there is far more to the unemployment picture, so do not look to media to quote what recruiters have known for years: No matter what your corporate experience, your age counts against you. What they do not answer however is "why?"

Of course your CV (resume) can reveal more about your age than you think. If your college graduation date is prior to 1989, you are sunk. If you don't list your college graduation year, you are usually dropped from the pool of candidates. (Most career counselors however do suggest 'older' employees should only list the past 10-years employment history and not list college dates if it reveals your experienced age.)
