I’m in the mid Atlantic area and after reporting my female colleague’s harassment and then later finding myself harassed and pushed out i am surprisingly having the damnest time finding my next job. I’ve been a Front End Designer/Dev for the past 7 years and always got jobs quickly. Now I’m wondering if it’s my age(42.. though look young for my age I am told) or these Govt IT jobs I’m going for my previous peers are talking negatively about me in circles? It’s been crazy tough after 25 phone or in person interviews!
