I had an interview today for a job in a field where I'm doing a career pivot. The job is a junior accounting position, which I'm perfectly fine with. My issue is that once the interview was done, I started nit-picking every response I gave to the questions I was asked. I want to think that my responses were fine, but I keep overthinking and doubting myself. In addition, I'm nervous because, as I mentioned, the job is for a junior, entry-level position, and I'm far older than the typical entry-level job seeker (56).

I'm 57 and was on the job market last year.

Ageism.... does it really happen? I think it does.

I enjoy my position and work for a young lady who is much younger than I am.

How do I deal with ageism trying to find a job?

At my prior company, they are cleaning house.

I have 30+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition/Leadership and I am still getting declined for not having a Bachelor's degree.
