Today we have a special guest, Devin Moonbeam (a pseudonym, her choice!). She is an accomplished VP of Marketing in her 50s who has had a long career in the tech industry. Devin will share why getting older in tech is tough, especially for women. She points out the root causes of this issue and candidly shares what she has seen and experienced. But despite these challenges, she has had a killer career due to her talents, confidence, and mindset.
Devin will call out ways older applicants hurt themselves in the job search process and suggest tips to help older employees avoid pitfalls during job interviews and reduce bias. She’ll also reveal the one term that we need to retire from our vocabulary if we want to be taken seriously. She lays bare the risks and downsides employers face when they don't hire or value experienced workers.
And don’t worry - there is good news too. Devin predicts that things will get a whole lot better for women and other diverse groups in tech over time. Finally, stay tuned to find out about our bold startup idea that will change the game for older tech employees forever.
Worried about this crazy tech layoff boom? Need a mindset shift? Want a laugh? Tune in to hear Devin's candid take and walk away with some practical advice.
“Even in the most craptastic company, there is a lesson to be learned and to take away.”
