Why can’t I get an interview? Advice for “mature” candidates.




By Samantha Nolan | March 30, 2011 9:58 PM EDT




Dear Sam: I am 57 years young and really
beginning to feel that my age is hindering the success of my job search.
I have been out of work for 10 months, and while this seems in line
with peers who are also searching for work, I haven't even had an
interview in 5 months. I'm wondering if my résumé is to blame. I haven't
needed a résumé in more than 20 years and I have to say that I haven't
really spent the time I probably should have to update it. Can you give
me some sage advice on effective ways to present my experience yet avoid
conveyance of my age? - Cindy
