Technological Advice for Older Job Seekers

Since one of the more common justifications for age discrimination in hiring is the assumption that older workers are unskilled at using common technology, experienced job seekers must pay careful attention to their technological footprint and personal brand. With Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn and Snapchat in the present and older but still active platforms like Tumblr and MySpace still online, it is easy to overlook an older but eternal presence. Job seekers must regularly Google themselves to ensure that inappropriate images or comments cannot be attributed to them.
