My comp downsized after 20 yrs there. Being 62 yrs old are there any ideas out there for me to get a job.?
Answer:
Well, to start, use electronic applications. Put your resume into MS-WORD and send it to company's HR people. Add a line that you will be following up shortly via phone - then do so. Consider what you did for your company - you might try consulting. Check jobs websites advertising in your specialty and shoot off some more resumes. Keep trying. Some companies have electronic application forms to fill out in a form preferred by them. Do that too. Hey, good luck - the job loss doesn't indicate you aren't worth anything - it only indicates that you worked for a bunch of souless, money-grubbing S.O.B.s.

Yup, they don't have to face you at all. Do not mention your age in your applications, it is illegal to ask that question. Discrimination by age is not allowed.
You could try working from home. Check this site out for home based jobs http://www.pcworkathome.in
