They won’t say it out loud, but you can feel it.

The rejections come faster—or not at all.

The interviews are polite, cold, over before they even begin.

If you’ve ever struggled to find work after a certain age, this episode of TransmissionX is for you.

📉 Inside this episode:

✅ The hidden bias of ageism in hiring – How experience is treated as a liability

✅ The brutal job search – 1,600+ applications, countless rejections, and ghosting

✅ The mental toll – When you start questioning your own worth

✅ Why companies lose out on talent by prioritizing youth over experience

💡 What this means for you:If you’ve been told you’re “overqualified,” if you’ve started hiding your experience just to get a shot—you’re not alone.

Experience isn’t a liability. It’s everything.
