Birthdays seem to come and go each and every year. As youngsters we usually can't wait for the next one. Then we move to teens and for many it is either 18 or 21 that we want in the US. Some people dread some of the ten year intervals (30,40,50 etc.) Then later on some folks keep pushing to be older or of the elders only t find there are still many that are much older than us. Seems when folks hit their late 70's or 80's they even refer to 1/2 years or months.
So what does this have to do with finding that next opportunity? If we allow age to be a determining factor in our ability to be hired then let's use it to our advantage. It is to your best interest to not let your own age stand in your way. You have so much to offer, ie:timeliness, punctuality, how to run a project, who to call, where the local PO is maybe. You want to be sure and sound positive and confident. Pull your shoulders back and look them in the eyes. Be proud of your "seniority" on this planet and workplace.
Remember you are in control of your own destiny, make the most of it and Happy Birthday next time.
