Finding the Jobs

My client today expressed fear that his gray hair would scream “Old!” whenever he applied for a job.  He may be right, since age discrimination exists and yes, it can hurt an applicant.

But think about it.  If hair is all that you think you have to offer, chances are that job hunting was already going to be a problem.  (Unless, of course the job was as a model for a hair product.)

Is hair really all you’ve got?

No, of course not.   You’ve also got talent, experience and charm.

Show that to prospective employers and you increase your chances of finding the job you want.

Spend time zeroing in on the things that you can control, like what strengths you would bring to the job, how familiar you are with the company and how it operates, and how well you present yourself in interviews.
