In the UK and Ireland they don't put age on the CV because they think it's rude, but as soon as you go for an interview they find out you're 40 and you can have whatever experience you have, which they discard. I work as medical Device engineer, 20 years of experience, my English is intermediate to advanced and I can't get any sponsorship in Ireland or the UK.
You look here or on Indeed, there are several vacancies, but just say Sponsor and they will see your age and they will reduce it to zero.

Getting sponsorship in general is hard

I see this in the States, too. It seems like sponsoring people can take resources some companies don’t have but don’t know much about the ageism issue. I’m sorry. I feel so young still at 38.

Even though it's illegal in many areas around the world, ageism continues to happen. It even happens at my university. They always find other reasons than age, not to hire or promote.

I received a verbal offer for a VP position at CCB line of business at JPMC in NYC two weeks ago. The recruiter asked for salary expectations but there was no number set.

Has anyone had similar experience?

Whenever I contact the person who took my interview he keep saying its in process please wait. Is it normal procedure in TCS? How long usually takes.

I am so anxious right now! Just got a job offer 2 weeks ago and still waiting on the written offer letter.

It’s been 2 days. My question is can I message the recruiter for an update? Will that be too annoying?

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?

I got a much higher salary than expected and a sign on bonus, and it’s been a while since I accepted the offer, and the start date is later this year…. Is it too late to ask for a bit more though?
