Episode 288: Ageism in the Hiring Process is a real issue. It's not disappointed or underqualified candidates complaining or making excuses. Ask yourself this: how many times have you used the phrase "we need more young people?" In an era when we need experienced and knowledgeable team members that know how to learn there's no better place to look than the over-35 crowd. Age is a demographic that is often used to discriminate but it is shadow discrimination because we don't discuss it publicly -- but now is the time to bring it into the open. My guests, Anuja Miner and Barry Pilson, are dedicated association management professionals who share their love of the profession and their take on the hiring process while seeking their next opportunity. And of course I make a comment or two! I want to thank Anuja and Barry for joining me for this very honest conversation about Ageism and possible solutions to changing our mindset. Age is just a descriptor -- it's not an indicator of performance. What do you think about ageism? Share a comment!
