Fellow Jobcase member Brenden says, "I'm 58 and have experience in a number of areas and keep getting turned down. And flat out told I'm too old. Yep, too old.

Following up
Following up is a great way to thank the employer for their time and mention one or two more things you may have forgotten or overlooked during the interview. Yet not everyone sends a follow-up or thinks it is necessary to land the job. Fellow Jobcase member Carter says, "I understand the point in doing this. In all honesty. I'm beginning to think it's a waste of time. I've heard actually say this to me, and to top it off: waste of postage. Yes. I do believe in doing it, but I really don't think it makes a difference."
What do you think? Is it THAT important to follow up?

Ageism. Yes... I am turning 68 this year and have been in home health care for almost 30 years. Was a nurse but went to working as home health aide which requires us to be very personal with our patients but very physical --- back breaking work. For a few years my back pain has been getting worse and can no longer do all this bending over and picking things up as required by this job. I had worked in an office as bookkeeper for 6 years when teenager and looking for office job again. But... will someone hire me? Looking for work-at-home, such as data entry. Will see what happens.
