Thanks!
Jeez that question sounds illegal
Coach
I almost posted on this originally, but I believe age is only a protected class when over 40? Definitely not something which should be discussed, but not illegal at 30s.
I always answer "I always feel the people in their positions have earned it through hard word and talent. So I never look at a person due to their age, I see what they bring to the company"
*to which I didn't have
But also, why did your age come up in an interview? Did you volunteer it?
They brought it up. They didn't know I'm 32 but they had an idea based on my years of experience and graduation year. The job posting said minimum 10 years of experience, which I don't exactly have, so I think it was a concern because the age difference is small with the people who would report to me
“I don’t think I’ll notice. I just focus on work at work. Some people excel faster than others.”
This doesn't address the question and seems like deflecting with is a red flag
