How can a middle aged man, starting over as a computer programmer, overcome the ageism in the industry?
Well, I'm a middle-aged man who wants to pursue a career as a computer programmer. But I'm worried that ageism might prevent me from being successful in the industry. What can I do to overcome this?
That's a valid concern. Ageism is unfortunately prevalent in many industries. However, there are still companies that value experience and skills over age. Have you considered building up a portfolio of projects to showcase your abilities?
