Our CEO offers a brief quote in this outstanding article by Jon Shields posted on the Jobscan blog.
As someone who has also experienced discrimination and bias in the workplace, Jon really lays out the issues that hits home with me. It is more prevalent with the baby-boomers except for those who were lucky enough to "get out" before their age really started to affect them from being hired.
All I can say is "Bravo Jon, with articles like this, individuals who can truly offer a company more than just a "checkmark" can and should be hired - it showcases what diversity is all about!"
