I believe I've been applying now to 100's of positions. Yes, I've gained interviews, been told hiring "internally," then see the position reposted. I'm turning 60 next year and know the job market is almost nonexistent, however, starting to wonder if it is also my age? Series 7 & 66 licenses, 9 plus years of experience working for a large broker dealer and Schwab. Really discouraged.

It could very well be your age. There's a lot of ageism in business, and of course no one will ever admit to it. At some point having great experience can work against you, younger workers are considered more malleable.

Hey there - recently moved to Austin, TX. Are any agencies hiring on their accounts services team?

I'm the hiring mgr for designers in my org. I recently discovered pay band information given to me by the HR generalist I'm working with on hiring was outdated and updated bands had been released over the summer (prior to my hire date). The outdated information had led me to believe a prime candidate was out of range. Aside from incompetence, can anyone think of a reason why HR might have withheld information about the pay bands? I assume mgrs see the full monty when it comes to pay...right?
