Does this sound like age discrimination to you?
I applied for a role as a salesperson.
No formal qualification requirements were stated for the position. The employer initially replied that other applications had more suitable qualifications and experience for the position. I enquired as to what those qualifications were. The recruiter then did a back flip and answered that this was a junior level position and that I was overqualified due to having experience above and beyond the level required.
Does this sound like age discrimination to anyone?

It is almost impossible for an individual to prove age discrimination. |
