2017 and it seems like age discrimination is alive and well, unfortunately. This recent NPR piece by Ina Jaffe, sheds some light on the subject. What are mature job seekers supposed to do? How about employers?
There are steps mature job seekers can take, such as not including education dates on resumes/applications, or ensuring they are up to date on the latest technology, but anything like this only goes so far.
Employers need to eliminate the practice and truly age proof their hiring practices. Failing to do so will cost your business unnecessary time and money. In addition, you are depriving your business of valuable resources in a competitive job market.
