This is something that suddenly hit home during the pandemic when I read an article about people over 50 finding it easer to get jobs because interviews were remote. I’m in my early 40s now but I’m forcing myself to think about what type of company and team I’d fit into in 10 years. I enjoy working at startups/scale ups. I’m the oldest person in the engineering team now (by over 10 years). My concern is that even with the best of intentions by an interviewer not to discriminate on age, I worry that I’m going to have to end up at a multinational or consultancy in the future because hiring someone 50+ in a startup filled with 20-somethings would be chalked up as a “culture fit” issue.
