schestowitz[TR3]The job market has been terrible for the past 2.5 years and right now is the worst it's been during that period. Also, 90%+ of jobs posted on the Internet are fake. Mainly to meet regulatory requirements to renew an H1B or make a PERM filing for someone already in the role. In some cases for HR to do salary research to make sure they're not overpaying their people. Either way, not a role that they will hire someone for. Hang in theJun 30 21:50

schestowitz[TR3]You can try and make the pervasive / prevalent age discrimination work your favor too. I have told Fidelity representatives that I don't want some young and inexperienced (read "green") representative to handle my retirement account. There is a deafening silence on the end of the phone, but they "get" it. If they can't do it, I walk away and take my business elsewhere. Most of the executives at these companies are not young jocks oJun 30 21:50
schestowitz[TR3]ut of school, but more seasoned professionals. Money talks, BS walks. Sometimes, you have to set an example and fight fire with fire. Ageisim in the US is discrimination, pure and simple...and IBM under the " leadership" of Alvind, Rometty and Palmisano has actively practiced, promoted and encouraged it as the unwritten corporate policy. After all, none of these crooks is younger than 60...and in the next 20 years every one of themJun 30 21:50

schestowitz[TR3]if anything Trump has been looking to downsize Government - too big, too bloated and it is not doing the job it was tasked with. Too many managers and micro-managers just like IBM was about 10 years ago. That is one reason we aren't at the top of science and engineering fields any more. Change is needed, not the addition of more bureaucrats and managers.Jun 30 21:51
schestowitz[TR3]China and India need to go their own way, the US makes it's own destiny without their H1B people or cheaply manufactured garbage with little or no quality. Neither country is the US best friend and we need to acknowledge that. But they are been planning strategy for a long time, so they could try and blunt the effects of Trump's tariffs.Jun 30 21:51
