I don’t know where the hell it says that talent expires when you pass 45, But there are those who have turned it into a new corporate religion.
Fashion, worthy of the worst manual for ‘dummies’, is ruining the lives and self-esteem of too many people talented, with need and desire to work. The blame for such cruelty is not blamed on the system, as if it were an unpredictable natural catastrophe. The system is made up of men and women who from their brand new human resources departments They decide who is suitable and who is not to work in their companies.
The chosen ones in turn to choose they discard a resume, skimp on an interview or they do not respond to an email just because the candidate’s age is over 45 years old. It is tacit discrimination with an aggravation of cowardice: the real reason for the discard is never explained, it is taken for granted. The absence of explanation is the explanation itself: “You are in your forties. You already know I’m not going to hire you & rdquor ;.
The absent message it is seeping like a Chinese drop that prevents falling asleep. It is desperate because it also has no solution. Workers to whom the perennial crisis or the recent pandemic has driven off the market, they can be recycled, formed and even reinvented, but they cannot last for years.
The passage of life ends up being the main enemy until the final death of opportunities arrives, at 55.
The latest Labor Force Survey shows that unemployment among those over 50 it has reached 999,000 people. Almost a million unemployed whose resumes are going to waste for not being socially young.
