How to Overcome Ageism in Your Job Search, with Alex Motta

We like to think that ageism isn't a thing in our job market, but that’s not true. Age is very much still a part of what employers consider when hiring. How do you continue to move forward in your career, or switch fields, if you’re an older worker? It all starts with self-confidence, says Find Your Dream Job guest Alex Motta. Alex also stresses the importance of keeping up to date on technology. Your experience and skills are needed, but you have to market yourself in a way that shows the value you bring and what you have to offer.  About Our Guest: Alex Motta (http://linkedin.com/in/alemotta)is an employment strategist and a certified resume writer who specializes in Linkedin profile optimization.
