Age discrimination is a real hurdle. One strategy that worked for me was highlighting my experience as an asset in performance reviews and meetings. I also started to document my achievements meticulously to leave no doubt about my contributions. Seeking out companies with a culture that values diversity and inclusion can also make a significant difference.

I’ve definitely faced ageism in my career, especially as I moved into my 50s. To navigate this, I focused on continuous learning to stay current with industry trends. I’ve also made an effort to network across different age groups, which helps break down stereotypes.

Sexism and now ageism are really hard to navigate. Feels like I’ve had to work twice as hard to get half as far in a lot of cases. Making sure you make your case during reviews or when doing interviews is a must. Sometimes putting in your all isn’t good enough and it can be really discouraging.

Hi fishes,
Iam a production support engineer (ETL,JAVA)with 5 years experience and 8LPA. Iam planning to switch my career. Will salesforce be a good choice for me? Please suggest.

Looking at a complete pivot into a business analyst or even into a technical software role, but still trying to work out where to start.

Coming from an enterprise sales role and before that enterprise marketing. I've got a minor in accounting so have (very) basic formal commercial knowledge.

Would you recommend reaching out to recruiters to get an idea, completing a few online courses or building up my skillset on the side to eventually transition? I've accepted that there will be a paycut.
