For those of us past 50, the search for meaningful work can feel like an uphill battle. We’re competing with younger candidates, often with the unspoken bias that experience comes with a “sell-by” date. But how does one truly know if age is the reason for not landing a job? When the pattern repeats itself—well-prepared presentations, strong interviews, and positive feedback that doesn’t convert to offers—it’s hard not to wonder if age discrimination is at play.
