Gen Z is the main force in the current market, and it is no longer a matter of uncontestable. This has made many professionals in their 40s, 50s and even older, ask, how can they maintain competition? Real estate tycoon Barbara Corcoran pointed out that the key to "energy" among middle and senior professionals who want to succeed in their job interviews.
The senior staff should make themselves look more energetic and more energeticThe star of this TV reality program "Shark Tank" recently said in a live-action answer to the Patreon public fundraising platform that vitality is the key to "buzzing" the interviewer. She said that if you walk in full vitality, full of vigor and enthusiasm, it will make them forget that you are 53 years old and think you are lighter than your actual age and will develop a favorable impression.
{Korlan, 66, said that age discrimination is indeed a problem. If you say you don't have to worry, you are cheating; once a job seeker exceeds 50, the employer will be suspicious. What you should do is to show your best side.
National Broadcasting Corporation Commercial Channel (CNBC) report that Kokolan did not say anything wrong. According to the latest research by the U.S. Human Resources Management Association (SHRM), in the past two years, the "age differences" that middle and senior employees have felt the most deeply in their jobs; 26% of employees under the age of 50 and above said that between November 2022 and April 2023, they had synthesized them in their workplaces as age-related discussion targets.
The Human Resources Management Association also conducted an interview with 1,000 personnel managers. They said that middle and high-age employees are more likely to be considered by others to be ignorant of technology (49%), resist new ways of working (38%), be stubborn or have a bad temper (48%).
CNBC pointed out that this explains why Kokolan suggests that older employees should make themselves look more energetic and more agile; but she also said that in the long run, it will not be good for her to get older. She emphasized that if she is old and doesn't want to let her age get into work, she will show her best side and put her age to the next.
Focus on what you can contribute to the company, such as years of experience in combat, wisdom and ability to solve problems. Kokolan said she has hired many years of older employees, who have more wisdom and experience, and it will be difficult for them to encounter any situation; they need much less training and have much more clever life experience and judgment.
Career Advisor Patrice Lindo agreed with Kokolan's view, and when she was interviewed by CNBC's TV program "Make It", she said that she was "too old" to be able to advance her career, and this view is becoming increasingly out of date. She often recommends customers over 40 to emphasize the accumulated experience value and the importance of continuous learning and strengthening suitability.
