Yesterday I wrote about what many people care about today

The brilliance and hypocrisy of the pension reform. And anonymous poll

Moreover, I wrote precisely from the point of view that the most difficult thing in this matter is that there is very little decent work for people over 45 years old!

I am an enterprising person and I know how to organize my work myself

Even while being treated in an oncological clinic, from time to time, I went to conduct trainings and training seminars in the company where I worked at that time.

She also translated verses from the word-for-word translation of a Tajik poet, a friend of my husband's. For which she earned money in American currency.

Now I have a private practice and I am calm when the schedule includes 3-4 consultations a day. In the summer, consultations are less than 1-2 per day, and this already makes you want to look, if not a job, then a part-time job.

I left the position of HR Director in due time, because my journey every day took 1, 5 hours at each end. It was very difficult to leave at 9 am and return at 9 pm taking chemotherapy drugs.

I'm a big fan of experiments. So I recently decided to activate my old resume with a new one (this photo here) in order to look at the reaction, and to investigate the issue of employment, at an age that, now even, is not even pre-retirement age!

And the calls went! Here, only the quality of the proposals left much to be desired, and this, considering that I live in St. Petersburg! Basically, they offered to work as a sales manager with cold customer bases on piecework wages, which means without a salary.

I removed the age and put an 8-year-old photo, the quality of calls has improved

I was twice offered to come for an interview as a HR manager at large enterprises. The telephone interview went off with a bang, because my voice is young, clear and energetic, and my diction is clear.

One time, after my honest answer to the question:

"How old are you full years?" Immediately there was a hitch: "Wait a minute on the line …" and continued: "Unfortunately, this vacancy is already taken in your region, we will save your resume and will definitely contact you when …."

The second time after scoring the number of my full years, there was just a pause.

I helped the confused girl at the other end of the pipe:

“I understand you, do you consider candidates only up to forty years old? It is so?"

"Ddddda …" - answered the girl.

In general, the experiment was a success

Let's face it?

The psychological background of the experiment is that

age discrimination was, is and will be even where work exists

It's good that I'm not really looking for a job!

I'll answer honestly as a career coach:

I helped to find a job in my specialty, only these were candidates up to forty-five years old.

Older people have been able, so far, only to set up sales of services and goods on the Internet or to agree to an equally qualified job

The exception was, only this ambiguous situation:
