How to find a job for an age candidate?

Employer concerns
Recruiters, inviting age-old applicants for interviews, are afraid that applicants may not be ready:

to modern business challenges: not knowing the technology and trembling at the word "Internet";
to communicate on equal terms with colleagues: trying to constantly teach the lives of other employees;
to a high pace of work: not coping with responsibilities in multitasking mode.
How to convince a recruiter?
Forget about your age at the interview. Print the text of the vacancy, carefully study all the requirements for the applicant at home. In communication with the interviewer, try to demonstrate (including reinforcing your speech with examples from the portfolio) that you fully comply with all the parameters of the vacancy. Be sure to highlight in your presentation the questions: “What can I give the company? Why exactly should I take this position? ". You are an experienced specialist who not only thoroughly knows the rules of the game, but is ready to become a real joker for his new employer, always ready to help.

You are interesting to the recruitment manager as a professional and as a potential member of the team. If the speech (from the recruiter’s submission!) Came up about the difficulties that you managed to overcome, you can share stories that will add points to you: “Yes, it was difficult, but instead of sitting idly by, I mastered the computer and read a lot of special literature. "I constantly communicate with colleagues in thematic forums, I always try to keep abreast of the latest technological innovations, etc."

What is the law talking about?
Just in case, we recall that employers do not have the right to limit the age of applicants in vacancies. Evgenia Tsyrenova, Director of Business Development, DF-Consulting: “Article No. 64 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation expressly prohibits unreasonable refusal to conclude an employment contract. If the company is for some reason not ready to accept a candidate for work, then it must substantiate its decision. It is important to remember that gender, race, color, nationality, political beliefs, the presence of children, or other factors that are not related to the business qualities of the employee are not legal grounds for refusal.

In order to receive a written refusal, it is necessary to contact the personnel department of the company and write a statement demanding that such a document be provided. The employer is obliged to answer it in writing. If the company refuses to substantiate its decision that it does not accept the applicant for work, it is necessary to contact the Labor Inspectorate. ”

You know how and want to work, which means you will certainly be lucky! Have a good job!
