Dealing with Ageism

Program Category
Educational Programs

Audience Age

Description

Ageism is illegal. It's also rampant. Thousands of smart and experienced workers can't land a job, because of misguided perceptions and biases.

Come join us as we discuss ageism and present tips for not only handling it, but also using the perceptions to your advantage.

We'll also present the history of age discrimination court cases, common mistakes made by mature interviewees, a list of perceptions and how to deal with them, and finally give you ten positive characteristics of mature workers.

If you're concerned about ageism, this is the presentation for you.
