Both the online test and interview were simple, and Danial got through them easily.

He was keen to get this job as this Fortune 100 company that he was interested in had a crumb trail leading to bigger, better jobs.

What he was worried about was his age. He wasn’t a young executive anymore, but having worked more than 15 years in hi-tech jobs meant that he might be considered too old for the beginner level.

He was solvent right now and had little savings in his account, but a job offer would be most welcome at this time with the current state of the economy.

Fingers crossed, he fired up his laptop and was happy to see the job offer.

I am writing to express my opinion, share my experiences and to maybe provide some insight. My blog is addressing women at 50 ( but men are welcome to read my posts) ,their issues and the questions that come up at this stage in life. I don’t aim to teach, but to learn together.

      1. I worry for my son who is in a tech start-up. My daughter was laid off during the shutdowns for 10 months, but now has a job with the University of California Berkeley. She wanted a municipal or university job for stability after her last experience.
