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.
I guess I am in the same boat as you, I agree about the age discrimination....it just stinks, I know I could run circles around some of these younger ones who seem to have no work ethics to boot !!
