What is the possibility of a 38 year old person to land a job?

Answer 1

Prime age much easier than at 18 or 60.

Answer 2

Depends on the 38 year old. Ask a better question like "What have I always wanted to do?" chances are there's a job out there that's just up your alley.

Answer 3

If you have a skill and a decent presentation of yourself , it shouldn't be too hard. Or if you are a good learner and have determination - in the case of going for a job that you don't have experience in. I think many employers like to hire people who aren't too young. Depends on the job you are trying for. I have a friend that says you cant really trust anybody until they are 30. There may be more than humor in that.

Remember: Resume and letters of reference are a must if possible. And be confident but not cocky.

Answer 4

I'm 37. I landed a job earlier this year at a Fortune 500 company. You've provided few details. Tell us more.

Answer 5

Possibility is very high!

But I would not give you a job even if I was desperate for an employee. How can you get a job when you do not know what you want to do? Your age has nothing to do with it!

Answer 6

What job are you trying to land? If it's high school prom queen, your chances are fairly nil. If your looking for a job you're qualified for, you might find a better chance at succeeding.

Answer 7

Why do you ask, does something happen after you turn 38?

Answer 8

The same as anyone else with your education, life experience and job history.

Have you never worked before?

Answer 9

Depends on your qualifications for the job.
