I have applied at a ton of positions which I am way overqualified for....no one ever gets back to me and when I try to call to "verify any additional information that they might need"...I only get answering machines. ANY job right now helps to pay the bills. Gook Luck! And, yes, I truly believe that age discrimination exists.
Yes! Age discrimination does exist! If you are past 50, employers don't want to talk to you. It took me 8 months to find a job.
