  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 should try to take refresher courses or seminars. She has a lot of experience which is great so if she shows that she has not stopped learning and how highly qualified she is there would be no question regarding her hire.
