Age discrimination….
- Is it a real thing?
- Does it actually happen?
- How?
- Why?
- Where does it really coming from?
One thing we know for sure is that...it’s illegal.
But hey...doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
If you’ve been listening to my show for a while you know I’m not one to just bitch and moan about a topic, have a hay day and leave you to it. My objective for every show is to share my insight on a career-related topic and provide you with action steps to help you go BIG in your life and career.
In today’s episode, I share with you insights on the topic of age discrimination over the last 4+ years as a technical recruiter working in the hiring world, but also a little bit about my personal experience when it comes to how age affects the workplace.
The truth is, our age is our age, there’s nothing we can do to change it.
This episode is designed to empower you to look at why age discrimination happens and what you can do about it.
