Key Facts64-year-old accountant seeks full-time work after hundreds of applications

Dec 4, 2025 · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: businessinsider.com

Since October 2024, he has sent hundreds of applications and had several interviews but received no full-time offer.

He believes his age has hurt his chances, though he says such an effect is difficult to prove.

His network helped him get interviews but has not yet led to a full-time job.

He recently landed a contract accounting job for three days a week at $28 an hour, which may last through the end of the year.

I believe the hiring system is broken. I'm not the only one out there going through these circumstances; it affects me as an older worker, but I've seen younger people go through similar challenges. It needs to be fixed.
— Matthew English discusses the challenges faced by older job seekers in the current hiring landscape.
