  Case: How old are you?
Despite laws that are in place to not discriminate against job applicants, it can be difficult for older teachers to be hired.

Ms. Sawyer is 55 years old. She used to teach Kindergarten and also taught English to all grades in a departmentalized elementary school 15 years ago. Most recently she teaches three year olds in a daycare. She wants to become a paraprofessional in a public school, but has not been called for an interview. What can Ms. Sawyer do to attract the attention of administrators in her school district?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
She needs to keep following up to make sure she gets her name in there. She can bring a portfolio of the recommendation letters and achievements to show them that she really is passionate.
