you don't have to put your DOB when applying to be honest mate so they wouldn't know your age..

This. age discrimination is illegal

Would you go back offshore? There are two significant developments which are just about complete in construction and will sail away over the next few months. Should arrive in the north sea in July to August and I know are not fully MC signed off.

Nearly 1 month on and still no joy. Did make it to one interview and knew within 5 minutes of it starting it was going nowhere.
I feel for the lads who are being laid off from the crisp factory, especially those over 50.

Do you not fancy doing what I did. Start your own business?

Well remembered for a full back, you must have had your previous account banned.

I just used the search function that's available to users and it came up. Thought oh that's an interesting boast.

From over 3 years ago, you must have spent some time on the search, weird.

About a minute. Was looking for a person who said they were married to a lottery winner who I knew to see if they post on here. The search function is very good.

Gives the game away when it says apprenticeship 1964

 

[lenshack]

I imagine its to do with the amount of competition you could be up against in the NE as much as anything.

56 is bugger all

That's when I had my mid life crisis,
...or something like that

Just returned back to the UK and looking for a bit of temporary/agency work after I get our lasses business up and running.
Applied for a few jobs with either a quick knock back or no reply at all.

Is 56 too old?

Had a quick look, nearly all care positions.

It is hard to hide your age when dates of employment are asked for, and qualifications and dates are asked for too.

I hate CVs they all spout the same "...I'm a good team player and also able to work independently...".

Just read two CVS and they look really good but they don't actually tell the truth, both candidates are clock watchers who play on their phones all day...

just give jobs in the last 15 years and leave off dates from your qualifications.

Viz Top Tip:

Employers - throw out half of the CVs of job applicants to eliminate the unlucky ones!
