Expert advice for how to avoid negative stereotypes associated with younger and more mature workers.
“Sometime in your life, someone with decision-making power will size you up based on your age, and you will be negatively impacted,” said Michael North, an assistant professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business, whostudied ageism in the workplace. “Age discrimination seems to be the most socially condoned prejudice.”
For younger people, understand what you bring to the table while paying tribute to the company’s history and previous success. “Don’t go into every interview calling yourself a disruptor,” North said. “Not all older generations will be open to that.” “If you don’t have to input this information, don’t volunteer it,” he said, adding that phrases like 40-plus years of experience also may not be best.Instead, stick to your skills and experiences. If you lack experience in one area, show how your skills are transferrable for this specific job. You can also be clear about any kind of transition, like a career change, or gap in employment
